Accidental gunbroker purchase - mblackmon4 - 09-06-2022
Well it happened, an accidental gunbroker purchase. I bought a howa 6.5 Grendel for too much money because coors light and my ego wouldnt let the other guy win. I already have a CZ 527 in 6.5 Grendel so I imagine one will be getting rebarreled to 6mm arc. Any suggestions as to which rifle and who to use? Ive been eyeing the 6 arc for a while now so Im actually kind excited even if it did start out as an accident.

Finding a Smith to turn and do a new barrel on a CZ can be a bit challenging but there are those that do not mind doing the Metric threads. I ran into that with my CZ Grendel before CZ got off their butts and started chambering the 527 for it. Mine started life as a 7.62X39. Liveoak Accuracy in Wylie, TX took the project and produced a great little rifle for me.
Gotta watch out for drunk gun buys, they can cost a lot of $

Lol no the CZ isnt for sale yet I enjoy it too much
I got the 20 heavy barreled howa with the basic black plastic stock.
As far as rebarreling Ive found a few prefits for the howa so thats at least an easy option. I have a CZ chambered in 6x45 that I bought used and I wish I knew the smith that did the work, it turned out amazing and is a heck of a shooter.
