[QUOTE="CaptnC, post: 1918640, member: 101755"] Buck, you and I can agree on one thing...there some clowns on the 6.5 Grendel Forum. They have a strong following that suggests you only need a 10.5" barrel for the 6.5 Grendel...they will also try to tell you all the powder charge is burnt in the first three inches of barrel! I go over there (same user name) when I get bored to mess up their day. I'm sure one guy has to refill his meds after my visits! LOL BUT, to be fair I've read plenty on that forum about faulty bolts. But for some reason they refuse to let it go! It was during the "Type 1 bolt" area they seen the bolt failures and the early, early day of the Type 2. Your missing out on fine chambering for the AR platform. At one time I had 4 - 6.8...I no longer have any. I ended up giving them to my kids. I do currently own a 10.5" 6.5 Grendel because I'm try to get a night vision rig weight down for my wife. But so far it's still very heavy with the ATN 4K scope and a 10" SOS Hunter suppressor. Anyway...we'll just have to see how this 6mm ARC works out...maybe just maybe I might build one to see if it works good for long range steel. [/QUOTE]
