    10" Grendel barrel

    Has any one tried a 10" barrel on a 6.5 Grendel SBR or pistol? Would a 1 in 7 twist make any difference?

    Alexander Arms did run some shorter than 12". I can't remember the specs but it worked. Thread in here somewhere.

        Thanks for the links. I ask because X-Caliber has several short Grendel barrels on sale for $168. One 10" marked type 1 bolt, the rest not stated. http://www.x-caliber.net/in-stock

          AA's short barrels are 11" these days, but I would have to question myself wanting a type-1 bolt of the xcaliber.

            Like I said just one stated type1. No bolt type stated on the others. Odd

              I emailed XCaliber, all barrels are type 2 unless specified as type 1.

                    Xcaliber also states if you don't get your bolt from them, they won't warrent y the barrel if there is a defect that effects it's accuracy.

                    I would avoid them myself but it's your cash.

                      i have several barrels from xcaliber. they all shoot sub moa. i drive past their shop at least one a week but have never stopped. my friend buys the barrels then sells me what works. i will try to stop soon and talk to them about short ones---like 8"-10".

                        Hope there sub moa. Ordered a 24" 224 Valkyrie with a matched Rubber City bolt on their 40% "in stock" sale.
