Thread: 6x45 Rem barrel

I've got a CZ 527 American in 6.5 Grendel, not overly impressed with this cartridge/or this CZ 527, was intending to chop rifle back to 18" for a bush rifle, now i am going to sell it, as have bought a used Barret fieldcraft, much better to carry,

Oh dear, poor build quality on that particular example? And here was me wanting to get another 527 after i have completely fallen in love with your old 17 Hornet.

This ones a bit rougher in the bolt ramps, I've polished it up, better now, more a comment, against not seeing any advantage, in the 6.5 Grendel, I've got several 6.5's, plus the sticky down mag, is a pain in the ass, to carry in your hand all day, I tried it and prefer the Sako 6PPC, cooper 6x47 and 6.5x54 mannlicher as carry rifle's,

Nice!
You dont mess around do you! Nice job on slotting the mag for the necks too. I run a .300blk mag in mine now which dont have those indents.
Let me know how it shoots mate. My barrel loves the 75gr hps.
