Review for
Geissele AR-15/M4 Reaction Rod
I can't say enough good things about this tool.
1) This is for the AR-15 mil spec. As long as your bolt has a standard AR-15 outer diameter and lug pattern this will work.
2) Used this to change the barrel out on my 6.5 Grendel. Grendel has the largest case head diameter that will fit in the AR-15 platform.
a) There is a manufacturer that builds an intermediate sized "AR-15". That rifle is not "Mil Spec". Research YOUR RIFLE to determine what you
need.
3) I don't know if it will work on a side charging upper, I had to remove the charging handle for it to fit in my standard upper.
4) After changing the barrel and getting the muzzle brake installed, this allowed me to keep the upper receiver level for scope installation.
5) It's not cheap, you do get what you pay for.

Review for
Ultradyne Apollo S Compensator
Installed one of these on a 6.5 Grendel.
No, it's not too much compensator for Grendel, the volume of gas generated by the cartridge is what makes it work.
Easy install, just follow the directions.
Reduces felt recoil,IMO, to that of a 5.56.

Great barrel for the price
Written on Apr 09, 2023
Having purchased and installed one of these barrels:
My rifle has lost 2 pounds of weight from the Heavy Contour barrel it was sporting
It now shoots like I've wanted it to shoot, better than I can.
I highly recommend a muzzle break of some kind.
Optics Planet had the barrel delivered before estimated delivery date, YMMV.
