I have a 4x16 to go on mine.
Doing Grendel as well, I'm going LPVO for lightweight hunting config, 400m max b/c its ballistics, so Leopold vx6 1-6, or vx5 2-10, their reticles are boring but good for hunting. All purpose so tempted to go Kahles 1-8, or Vortex 1-10
I have a 2.5-10x set aside for my grendel build
Nice responses, thanks. I don't know a lot about grendel, but have heard it can shoot some good distance even with a 16" barrel. I'll take a look at those options.
Follow up question, is checking head spacing necessary?
Insert clever signature here...
Yes! Also make sure you use a quality barrel and bolt. Using a cheaper parts might lead to extraction issues. Having incorrect head space can also cause extraction problems.
Thanks SBI. I saw that another retailer provides a sort of rental program for a head space gauge. I can purchase it and then return it, less $20. I'll go that route to be safe. I have a Faxon barrel and Tool Craft bolt ready to go on it. Should be a nice build, considering all the accessories are off my custom built 9mm PCC AR. Looking at a $3k rifle easy.

The bolt and barrel unit which I will be using headspace perfectly as a set. Both are quality components.

More emails just went out with links to complete your order.
Happy days! Wife sent me pics of our receiver sets, now at home. Thanks, SBI
Are you taking over, or are you taking orders?
Live free, live Cree!
We still have a couple more receivers left from this batch, so check your email to see if you got the message about it being your turn in line.
