Interestingly, my Howa Mini 223 in EXCL Lite chassis with a Leupold VX-R Scope & DPT Suppressor weighs the same as my Howa Mini 6.5G in Elude Chassis with Leupold VX3 & DPT Suppressor...

mudgripz the Excl Lite Chassis was never as Lite as it was supposed to be, and the polymer forend is not stiff. It twists quite happily.

However, having used it since it finally made it to NZ,...

Time for me to start reloading for the Grendel with BM8208 then! I have been hesitant chopping as I am only getting 2470fps out of the 22in I have! If I can get better than that out of 14.5in, then...

Micky Duck, absolutely awesome in hand, beautiful to handle. A tad heavier than 3.2kg, The Grendel Suppressor is on the wifes 223, so the 270wsm Magnum Suppressor is on the Grendel. But still...

No Deer yet, but 5 Goats down.
These were 3 Goats with 2 Grendel Rounds, all headshots!

Picked up my Elude Chassis yesterday! Absolutely stoked!
I definitely recommend shortening the barrel, my Grendel with a 22in looks almost out of place in such a compact and light weight chassis.

Wingman and Micky Duck I am bloody excited about this!
But wish I hadn't seen this until the morning. Now I am not going to be able to sleep!
Just in time too, heading away for a Hunt on Thursday,...

Wife uses the BX1 Mckenzie HD's, she loves them and thinks they are great. I on the otherhand just didnt gel with them and ended up going with the BX2 Alpine HD's. I can see a small but worthwhile...

Wingman, I had wondered, but hadn't been able to find much information about either 6.5mmBR or the 6.5mm Dasher.

My Grendel is using a 22in Barrel, and following the whole minimum 1,000ft-lb...

Wingman, sorry about the Thread Hijack, but wanted your opinion on another potential Wildcat.
You have had quite a lot of experience with both the 6.5 Grendel and the 6.5x47 Lapua, and I was...

Still havn't heard about mine. According to Dave, I am supposedly first in the que for this 2nd batch!

AR7 sounds like this week or early next week. Even the 'stocks only' require the Carbon Fiber bits.
Definately looking forward to getting my phone call! I will drop everything I am doing and drive...

And a little boy waits...

Wingman did they arrive back from Anodizing as expected ?
Been hanging out for all the Teasers on both here and the Facebook page!

Full Moon ? Heard that can taint meat !

TLB The Howa Mini mag release is not ideal, so accidental mag releases were common. The protruding mag also makes the rifle uncomfortable or awkward to carry. Flush mount Mags or Floor Plates cured...

Dammit striker I cant afford the items I already had on my shopping list, now you going show me candy like that!
Need a Mag for my 223 & for my 6.5 Grendel, and obviously when I eventually put the...

Hi Team,

On ADI's list of Powder Equivalents, they list RL25 as equivalent to AR2225, can anyone confirm this ?

I will be starting some load development on a 270wsm in the next couple of weeks....

Hey guys,

I imagine everyone is tight lipped this time of year, as to whether or not certain blocks have any Deer in them.

But asking on the off chance, as I am hoping to put a hind in the...

I am using a Grendel with the standard 123gr ELD-M Hornady Black ammunition. Out of a 20in Standard Barrel I am only getting 2470fps.

I have shot around 20+ Red/Fallow Deer with that Rifle and...

Remmodel7 Mines 20" Standard Barrel and I am getting 2470 with single digit ES, from factory Hornady Black.
Been tempted to handload a few times, but if it aint broke I wont fix it.

Wingman, thank you for the update!
In all honesty, I just wanted to revive this Thread!

It had been awesome seeing everyone elses Eludes/Builds and then all of a sudden the sharing stopped.
