Saw a few posts on them here, but nothing too recent. Went and checked them out at a local shop here today, looks like a solid gun, and thinking about adding a 6.5 Grendel to the family. Anyone have experience with them? I've read a few negative things on other forums, but nothing that would change my mind yet.

Have read good and bad on them, for the price probably not to bad. See some reporting sub MOA while others reporting no where close to that. Could probably do a little work on one like bed the barrel with the receiver and improve accuracy if needed.

Mainstream news might be fun to watch

I just bought a 20" 6.5 Grendel upper. Lots of good reviews and a few bad ones. There's a warranty on it so I'm not that worried. Hard to beat the price. Finished the lower for it, still have to add a scope so haven't shot it yet.

I have one of their .300 BO uppers. So far it's exceeded my expectations based on what I paid. The fit and finish are good, I actually like their hand guard, and it's plenty accurate for hunting purposes. Another plus is it fits exceptionally well on my lower (PSA) very well.

I have one of their uppers and it is well built. The only thing in the process that I was concerned about was the fact that they charge your credit card before the build. That is just how they do business and I will buy from them again. Their customer service, when they were able to answer the phone, was very good also.

Biggest complaint I've heard is getting ahold of them and wait times, think I'll pull the trigger

I didn't order direct. I ordered from JoeBobOutfitters. Free shipping, no tax added, and CHEAPER than ordering direct.
I wish they would do sales like they did a couple of times last year. They had complete 6.5 Grendels for around $500. I only heard about them after the sale was over.
