My first Grendel results - Neanderthal - 09-03-2018 I finally got a chance to sight "Goldilocks" in today. It's my first 6.5 Grendel build, but I don't think it will be my last. I'm a big fan! Here's are the build specs: 1. Colt Competition Upper & Lower 2. Faxon 16" 6.5 "Monster" barrel from group buy. 3. "Monster" type 2 bolt from group buy. 4. Brownells M16 TiN MP BCG 5. Parallax Tactical M-LOK lightweight Ultra-slim handguard 6. FBT "Blue" Trigger group 7. Colt (Roger's) Super Stok (soon to be replaced with MFT Minimalist stock). 8. Oversized Mag release.v 9. Phase 5 bolt release (Soon to be removed, not a huge fan). 10. Aero Precision lightweight cantilever scope mount 11. Nikon P-308 4-16x42 30mm BDC 800 scope 12. VG6 Epsilon Muzzle brake The full weight of the rifle is 7.1 lbs, but it will be lightening up a little after I swap out from a minimalist stock and remove that Phase 5 bolt release.

I had shot a much better group before this (under the sticker thingy on the target), but forgot to take a pic of it. [ATTACH=CONFIG]12636[/ATTACH] My first Grendel results - VASCAR2 - 09-03-2018 Very nice, I’ve got a 16” Faxon and an 18” Faxon both from the group buys. I really like them both and they also shoot good. My first Grendel results - LRRPF52 - 09-03-2018 My first Grendel results - Popeye212 - 09-03-2018 Very nice looks it's a going to be a shooter My first Grendel results - Armadillo66 - 09-03-2018 I could be very happy with those results. I have been lucky and out to 600yds so far my 18" build shoots pretty good. With some careful handloading I can probably get a real accurate and hard hitting hunting load good for Deer, Antelope and even Elk inside 300yds My first Grendel results - Neanderthal - 09-03-2018 Thanks, all! I put this together for an all around "go-to" rifle. It will be what a grab when there are pigs or coyotes in the pasture out back. My first Grendel results - BluntForceTrauma - 09-12-2018 Diggin' that! Sweet build. I'm a FDE-and-black color scheme guy myself.
