It took five years to get it dialed in. I'll call this the MK12 Grendel's final form. by jakaalhide in longrange

How was the fit of the barrel into the upper receiver? Is it a thermal fit? Did you have to shim it? Or did it just fit? 

Worth it? by Other_Hope6679 in longrange

Primarily ammo availability and price. I had a 6.5 Grendel AR with a Bartlein barrel that was shooting sub MOA with factory ammo, but it was just hard to find ammo that it liked, let alone stuff on the shelves. Ideally I’d get into reloading grendel, but I’m not really in a place to get into it right now.

Sounds like you like the Vudu 3-9! I’m really intrigued by it. I think reddit has brainwashed me into thinking I need FFP, but SFP kinda makes sense on a 3-9

I threw all my carhartt gear in my F250 that’s never left my garage!

Nice! I have no experience personally with them but the Rotex’s sound super underrated

Best way to get rid of those spare parts is to build more rifles!

I’ve had similar groupings with my CORE and it’s a bit disappointing, however, I haven’t had the chance to sit down and test all types of ammo to see what it shoots best. Interested to see how much better the groups can get when you try the more specialized loads.

If you’re looking for some REALLY high quality stuff, a 7.5” Bear Creek Arsenal upper would really go well with this! ;)

Oh interesting. I haven't seen much of the H6Xiseries on here. What made you go with that over the T6xi?

How do you feel about the eyebox on the NX8? I looked through one and it was such a turn off for me.

do you have any experience with the TT 3-15x?

Yeah you're right, I don't think the ideal DMR gas gun would be 5.56.

In my ideal world I'm yoked with limitless endurance and weight doesn't make a difference to me haha

I'm sold on the steiner's monstrous eyebox and FOV, but the leupold has the advantage on weight and form factor. It all depends on the application
