- Lantac USC side charging billet upper - Young Manufacturing side charging hard chrome BCG - JP 6.5 enhanced bolt - Christensen Arms 20" carbon fiber barrel - BCM ambi charging handle - Fortis Night Rail 16" MLOK - Precision Armament M41 Severe-Duty Duty brake - Accu-Tac SR-5 bipod Lower is in progress now....waiting on a bonus from work to complete it. I will update when progress is made. Let me know what ya think     _________________ "It is what it ain't" Last edited by k5kolodzi on Sun Sep 04, 2016 4:21 pm, edited 1 time in total. |

Looks nice so far! I do wonder if a brake like that is overkill for the 6.5 Grendel, and might just make it obnoxiously loud. I don't have much experience with Grendel, though.
What will you be hunting with it? _________________ Steve Benefactor Life Member, National Rifle Association Life Member, Second Amendment Foundation Patriot & Life Member, Gun Owners of America Life Member, Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms Legal Action Supporter, Firearms Policy Coalition Member, NAGR/NFGR Please support the organizations that support all of us.

I thought the same about the brake....it looked way smaller when I was doing research. When I received it I was a bit bummed and thought about exchanging it for a Griffin Armament that was way smaller. However it is growing on me and I think I'll leave it where it is at. I will be hunting antelope mostly....I'm going with a friend that does this yearly and he picks them off at ranges of 500-650 yards

Ohhhhhh I like talking about glass. It will be sporting a Vortex Viper in a Warne R.A.M.P with a canted Vortex Venom reflex sight as backup. I'm still deciding between 3-9 or 4-16....

That's sick. The m11 brake is smaller.
