Get good reports on the Monster barrels and bolts. Not Lilja or Bartlein but good for the price. I would go 12.5 inch with the Grendel. That is for the Monster barrels on the Grendel forum group buys

Right now they have the 12 inch barrel for 133 and the bolt for 55 I'm thinking it migt be a good budget build

That’s the one you need ^^. I currently run a Faxon 12”, and built a buddy one with a Ballstic Advantage 12.5”. They were only used with thermal scopes for hog hunting so can’t really vouch for their accuracy on paper but they’ve both killed alot of pigs and coyotes. I’d also recommend a linear comp of some of some sort unless you’re running suppressed as its noticeably louder/more concussive than 223

I’m still wanting to make my Grendel an SBR. I’ve heard the 12.5 barrel is still unpleasant even with a suppressor, any truth to this?
