I have three new grendel builds that have run into trouble. All three are type2, two of them being Grendel calibers and one being Beowulf 50cal that uses a grendel type2 bolt. I bought two of the bolts and the third was included with a parts purchase. I noticed that i wasn't able to go full battery and after going through the firearms multiple times i finally determined it was bolt issues.
Tool Craft
0.136 = Bolt Face Depth
2.802 = Bolt Length
0.273 = Lug Length
3.266 = Fireing Pin (SHORTER FIRING PIN)
Radical Firearms
0.136 = Bolt Face Depth
2.800 = Bolt Length
0.279 = Lug Length
3.277 = Fireing Pin
KM Tactical
0.124 = Bolt Face Depth
2.797 = Bolt Length
0.273 = Lug Length
3.277 = Fireing Pin
Tool Craft does chamber a round in all three firearms thankfully, but it is the shorter fireing pin design. I bought this late 2019 early 2020 from Optics Planet so don't think these bolts are not still around becouse THEY ARE.
Radical Firearms bolt will not chamber a round in any of the three firearms. The only diffrences are the fireing pin and the lug length. I haven't been able to find the accurate lug length spec on the grendel bolt to know that this is indeed out of spec or if my others are. Fireing pin protrusion IS too much. ????
KM Tactical bolt, they apparently sent me a type1 i guess. Bolt Face Depth is 0.124 which won't work in a type2 barrel extension. ???? at their attention to detail and quality control but i should have expected as much from them.
From what I read on the forums here, the Alexander Arms Grendel bolts work really well? Im asking becouse I'd hate to buy a couple and still have more issues. Its bad enough that I've lost all faith in the these three rifle,s and now gonna have to fork out a $350 dollars for headspace gauges for reassurance in the two calibers.
Anyone able to possibly messure the Alexander Arms grendel type2 bolt lug length for me? Im just curious.
