Finished the lower for my 6.5Grendel upper this morning. Can't wait to get out and shoot it now. Waiting on a magazine to show up now.... Gonna do the break in with some Hornady 123 SST factory loads, and then start working up a load with some 95 V-Max. If I can't get those to shoot as well as I'd like then I'll be trying some 120 eld-m.
The upper is a 24" BCA (yes I know they don't have the greatest reputation, but there have been some people getting phenomenal results with their 24" 6.5 grendels). Lower is an Anderson Manufacturing that I picked up stripped at a gun show last weekend. bought a run of the mill lower parts kit, a 3.5# JPE trigger spring kit and a Pachmayer grip along with a Magpul MOE Rifle stock. Also Polished up the seer on the trigger before I put it all together to smooth out the pull. Till has a bunch of creep, but at 3.5# pull, I can deal with the creep for a while.
As I said up top, I know BCA hasn't had the greatest past, but lately it appears they have been turning out some decent uppers and barrels. If I can't get it to shoot well at all, I can send the barrel in for a replacement so I'm confident I'll be able to get it to shoot.
Any of you guys tried loading the 95 V-Max in a 6.5 grendel ar? any luck?
