[QUOTE="brentc, post: 627436, member: 16938"] Les Baer Custom (LBC) created their own version of the 6.5 due to a trademark Alexander Arms obtained for the name "Grendel". When it came time for AA to collect royalties from everyone making money off the Grendel chambering, LBC went and created their own chamber utilizing extremely similar dimensions, but distinguishably different in neck dimension and throat angle. (The LBC chambering has a tighter neck). Therefore, we have two chamberings capable of firing the same ammunition. Most manufacturers shy away from even saying "Grendel" when talking about their 6.5 due to the legal ramifications. This may be the reason for using the 7.62x39 bolt. Either way, it doesn't matter which chamber you have. they will both perform similarly with the same ammunition. However, the tighter chamber of the LBC is better for brass life in the long run.
