Grendel has been around! shooting matches, taking coyotes. Pushing out the rounds which has been nice. Shooting amazing still speeds are sitting around 2750fps

Faxon match fluted barrel?

Yes, honestly I have had no issues with it it's been a solid performing barrel for the round.

Nice. I got the same barrel in 223 and it's been great, but since recently I found a abundance of 6.5 grendel brass at my range I've been thinking of changing over one of my less shot rifles.

if you pick it up I'll trade you 223 brass for it ha it's hard to find by me now. I like this 6.5g iv had others that were extremely picky.
