I have no doubt the Grendel is a thing of beauty and a step up from the .223. I wonder what projectiles you were using in the .223? Not dissing your experience but the heavy for caliber .223...

I've always liked the idea of doing the 6.5x53R, aka .256 Mannlicher, on a Lee or Ross action, which you could think of as a '303-6.5'. Not truly a .303 wildcat per se, but since it can be formed...

25/303 here, Boyd stock on a MK111 action. Shoots 100gr and 75gr acceptably. Ideally a P14 or even MK4 action would make things a little less stressful for pressures. Beggars can't be choosers, I...

You can order a pole set as well when you order one - about $15 if I recall correctly. We use those and they work fine. They're light as he'll and doesn't effect the pack down size.
