Hey Everyone. I just finished up this Grendel. My intended use is going to be long range target shooting and local PRS club matches.

My initial chrono numbers were quite a bit lower than what I expected (2600-2625 fps with factory AMAX) but the more I researched this seems fairly common with the first 100-150 rounds of ANY new barrel. Now I'm at around 150 rounds shot and I plan on chronographing any new loads. I'll post these results up when I have them. I do have occasional access to a friends farm field when him or the neighbors aren't out working. About three weeks ago I had it hitting pretty consistently at 500 yards with factory 123 AMAX.
Quoted:
nicely done. sweet. Barrel, bolt,handguard is the same as i've wanted. Would be interested in chrono numbers and how she shoots. do you have access to a range with some distance, that would be a good time. |
