    Brownells 6.5 Grendel BCG

    Is the Brownells 6.5 Grendel BCG good to go?

    I'm skeptical. My handheld measurements with cheap calipers:

    Brownell's 6.5 Grendel BCG:
    Firing Pin: 3.267"
    Bolt Length: 2.798"
    Bolt Face Depth: 1.375"

    vs.

    Noveske (aka Maxim?) 6.5 Grendel BCG factory headspaced and bundled w/my Noveske barrel:
    Firing Pin: 3.275"
    Bolt Length: 2.810"
    Bolt Face Depth: 1.366"

    I plan to return mine to Brownell's and buy from Maxim Firearms.

      I have heard good and bad about them. The one I received I returned, it was really in rough shape. Lots of machining marks all over it.

        This one is made by Tool Craft. https://ar15discounts.com/products/t...black-nitride/ I have never used them but the reviews I have read were all good.
        I use BCM but it is more expensive. https://www.bravocompanyusa.com/BCM-...up-auto-mp.htm
