Re: Grendel barrel breaking in

I love this rifle. I've only put 50 rounds through it. But the more I play with it, the less I want to do with a 7.62 or 5.56. It just does everything I want, and with far more accuracy than I can put down myself yet.
 
Re: Grendel barrel breaking in

Like I said, 50 rounds so far... I can't wait to see how this closes up after 200 or so. I'm really likeing the 18" barrel. will post up pictures of the rifle the way it's currently configured.

Try some scenars and the 95 gn vmax. Congrats you have been officially ruined to 5.56 and 7.62 for life. Same thing happened to me now I'm mad I blew so much money on 5.56 shooting. Besides with the Army I haven't shot 5.56 for years. It's been close to 18 mo since I shot my 308. Just measured last sundays best group, 1.22" center to center...... At 500 yds. Thats with the 123 gn scenars in front of 28 gn of varget.
