[QUOTE="threejones, post: 606410, member: 27464"] Thanx, I think that seals the deal. I'll order a Model1sales upper kit in 6.8 SPC or 6.5 Grendel (saves some $$ if I assemble it myself and no FFL needed), 20in fluted varminter bbl, full length gas tube, with a SI stripped lower, and Geissele trigger group. Hopefully it'll save me enough $$$ to buy reloading dies and a bunch of brass. Unless someone can talk me into something different before my tax return gets here. Anyone got a feeling on the Grendel vs the 6.8SPC. It looks like they'll both do the job I need them to do. I think the recoil will be tolerable for my wife with either of em, but bullet/brass availability seems like it might be an issue (I'd like to tailor loads to the critter, so a good selection of bullets would be nice). Is there going to be any difference in barrel life, brass life, etc. I'm leaning on the SPC so far... but not tied to it yet. Thanx Cody [/QUOTE]
