odie64 Posted October 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2017 (edited) A little update from the last outing. I added the 1" rubber butt pad for the ACE entry length stock. It added just enough length to eliminate any unwanted contact to the face. Still not where I want to be accuracy wise but shooting offhand rapid fire at 25 yards. I'm pretty happy with the results. I think that is a 4' diamond for reference. The hardest thing right now is keeping it fed at the cost of $2.00-$3.00 per round and there are some that run higher.

Mostly with LOP the recoil is substantial but not what I would call overly harsh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odie64 Posted May 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2018 (edited) A little more off hand time with the 458 at 25 yards, another 40 rounds, it's little tighter. I only have 260 rounds through it or $520.00 in ammo which ever way you want to look at it. Edited May 27, 2018 by odie64 content Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That thing you have is the devil. 8" pistol with a shockwave blade on it. Shooting it is like some fucker hitting you in the shoulder with a machete...

The hardest thing right now is keeping it fed at the cost of $2.00-$3.00 per round and there are some that run higher. Looks like fun, so its comparable to the 308 AR in recoil?? I've had two Wilson Combat 308's in my sights within the last month, and I missed one on Gun Broker, an Ultimate Hunter with 18" fluted and un threaded muzzle, I found a tactical hunter which had a folding stock, threaded barrel, and a nice Leopold, but it was pricey, I just couldn't pull the trigger... I'm gonna be 64 in a few days, and while I used to shoot an 83 lb compound and a 71 lb recurve bow? those days are over... I'm having a similar issue with my little Husqvarna in 30-06, oh I can do it, but its not necessarily pleasant anymore, but then I'm 40 lbs less man than I used to be too?? My young second cousin offered to let me come out and fire the so com, I'm wondering if I shouldn't build a 6.5 Grendel or a 6.8 SPC for my Rock while I'm waiting on a matched upper and lower for the WC-10 to be back in stock??

Sharpshooter Posted May 9, 2020 Report Share Posted May 9, 2020 Brother, I hear you. The shiit I used to do without a problem (3" 12 gauge magnum rounds? 50 or 100, so it bruises you a litle, so what) is now more of a challenge. The bottom line will always be "can you shoot the bitch accurately, or not?" If you're flinching because of the recoil, you may want to dial it back a bit. To use an absurd anology, I'd rather hit my target with a .22 than miss it with a .45. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hands down, it's the most effective cartridge ever designed for the small-frame AR, bar none. Nothing else even comes close. Oh, and yes, I did build a .224 Valkyrie, to compare to the Grendel. The Valk doesn't hold a candle to the Grendel. No way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you 98, I'm leaning that direction, I've kinda sorta looked at the Wilson 300 HamR, as I kinda want a 30 cal., I realize these are 2 completely different animals.... 7 hours ago, Sharpshooter said: Brother, I hear you.

Exactly, so I was looking at the Wilson Ultimate Hunter, supposedly under 8 lbs, I have a really ugly Savage 110 with a bull barrel, a gift thats no sweat at all, but I keep hearing the AR 308 is a little bouncy?? anybody here in Central Obamastan, I'd like to shoot several of these calibers?

And, I agree with you - I'll take the 45-70 for a "day of shooting" over @sketch's .458 SOCOM with the fuckin' Shockwave Blade stabilizer...
