Just a heads up to all who are buying or plan on buying 6ARC barrel, If you do you need to run a type 2 grendel bolt on like a proof research barrel. The type one and 7.62x39 bolt wont headspace. Yall may already know this but some might not.

Sorry for the stupid question...but how the heck do you tell type 1 from type 2. I bought the JP Enhanced bolt for 6.5 Grendel. Their site doesn’t state if it is Type 1 or Type 2.

Thanks for the heads up.

1/2 truth, depends on how person chambering barrel cuts chamber.
Either bolt can be used, just needs to be accounted for when cutting chamber.
Most places will probably cut chamber for a type 2 bolt.
Definitely a question to ask when getting a 6 ARC bbl, just to be certain.
