The recoil is just tad heavier than 300 BLK. at supersonic speeds. I have not tried the Grendel. But in all truth, the recoil is nothing to worry about.

We've finally got the Ruger Ranch rifle 300 HAM'R conversion stuff up on the web site

The barrel kit (Barrel 16" 1-15 twist with black ArmorTuff finish, barrel nut, wrench and headspacing gage) is $249.95 order # BR-300HRACK

The kit and installation which includes black ArmorTuff finish on the receiver is $400. order #RUG-300HAMR-C

.223/5.56, .300BLK (best choice due to magazine compatibility) or .350 Legend guns can be converted

MC68,

You shoot that north of Liberty Hill?

I am pretty sure any RA will work in the calibers Mr. Wilson listed...barrel to stock clearance my need to be adjusted on the standard model depending on barrel contour. If you desire the AR mag then the :ranch" is the only option.

I have no preference really. I just really want a bolt action Ham’r! Whichever model is best suited for the conversion is fine with me.

It doesn't matter for the conversion whether it's one of the older plastic 5rd mag or AR15 mag model, we've done both.

We've done a few CZ conversions, but the improperly located mag release made these a NO GO, I was repeatedly ejecting the mag while carrying the rifle.

Bill,

Not to be contrary - is it possible that you mean the Howa Mini, which has the magazine release positioned in front of magazine. The Howa is famous for dropping its magazines when carried or even when setting up to shoot.

This is one of Howa Mini's critical design flaws, and for which reason there are some recent aftermarket innovations to resolve this long-standing issue:
1) Diversified Innovative Products Inc "DIP" offers a after-market bottom metal (actually made from metal unlike the factory plastic bottom metal).
2) Oregunsmithing has created a complete replacement bottom metal that incorporates a internal blind magazine and hinged floorplate, which is rumored to be under consideration by Legacy Sports, Howa's US Distributor, to offer as a factory option as a solution to the mag release issue and POS factory magazine issue.

The CZ 527 magazine release (see picture below) is recessed underneath the rifle lying midway along the bottom metal against the magazine. It takes a firm grip/pinch of the magazine release button against the magazine in order to strip the magazine out f the rifle. Even with a flush cut magazine/single shot loading block, it is not something that is easily bumped or accidentally released. It is a sturdy little rifle.

Looking for a little help. Just bought a Wilson 300 ham’r barrel and put on an existing AR I had. It shot great. Great groups, but I noticed brass came out with an vertical indention toward top of brass. Right at top of spent brass. Anybody see this before, and what does it mean?

Tdbduckhinte, a picture or two would help diagnose the issue. Has this been something that started recently? Or just since you did the barrel swap? Do you notice any excess gas from the ejection port? More so than when it was setup for the previous caliber? Was it originally a .223/5.56 or 300Blk? Factory loads or handloads with current setup and previous?
