1. NW PA. Nov 20, 2020. #1. I'm looking at getting a bolt action rifle in 6.5 grendel. The idea came to me when I was looking at a new AR upper in 6.5 grendel, I thought it would be fun to get a bolt action rifle in the same caliber. Now I like the idea so well, I want to get the bolt action rifle before the new upper.
Id go semiauto, unless you go Creedmore. I have multiple Grendel ARs, a Creedmoor bolt action and a Creedmoor AR-10. I really want a good Grendel bolt action. 12.5" barrel, 60 degree bolt throw, nothing blued or walnut, threaded. Ruger American. That said, 12" or 12.5" Grendel AR15 is best Grendel.
the Grendel main design goal was for an AR platform after all, and most folks out looking for a bolt platform in a 6.5 caliber usually opt for 6.5 Creedmoor or 260 Rem or 6.5x55 Swede before a 6.5 Grendel for the greater versatility of loading, and for the greater performance capability.

13,310. San Diego, Ca. Jun 16, 2020. #4. The Ruger Ranch rifles are pretty accurate, and cheap. The triggers leave a lot to be desired, but the Timney replacement is pretty decent. As to taking it to 800...on a calm day, yes. IME, 700 is more realistic; after that it tends to get wonky.
No regrets, but I wouldn't mind a Sako micro-action in 6.5 Grendel!

The axis is a one-size action for long or short. The new "110" is probably the short action one. So I am very interested in how they feed. That they are offering 2 models, leads me to hope they have something figured out. Howa's not doing anything, Ruger's not either, so this for now, is the one bolt action factory rifle in the game.
