The Radical Firearms Forged 6.5 Grendel 16" Semi-Automatic Modern Sporting Rifle redefines performance for serious shooters. Built around MIL-STD upper and lower receivers, this rifle combines the proven strength of a forged platform with the ballistics and versatility of the 6.5 Grendel cartridge. Whether stalking targets at extended ranges or engaging targets in a tactical environment, this rifle delivers repeatable precision, rock-solid reliability, and user-focused ergonomics in a sleek, black anodized finish.

Precision Engineered 16in 416R Stainless Steel Barrel

At the heart of this MSR is a 16-inch, medium-contour 416R stainless steel barrel. The 1:8" twist rate is optimized for stabilizing heavy-for-caliber bullets, producing flat trajectories and exceptional downrange energy. The barrel is cold hammer forged for consistent rifling and superior barrel life. Outfitted with a custom Pepper Pot muzzle brake, recoil is managed effectively, ensuring quicker follow-up shots and reducing shooter fatigue during long sessions.

Modular Free-Float RPR Rail System

The 15-inch Radical Precision Rail (RPR) free-float handguard provides a stable mounting platform for optics, lights, lasers, grips, and bipods. Its continuous top rail aligns perfectly with the upper receiver’s top rail, allowing seamless optics mounting. Large M-LOK mounting slots along its length enable you to attach accessories exactly where you need them, while its modular design keeps the overall weight balanced for fast target transitions.

Mission First Tactical Minimalist Stock & Enhanced Ergonomics

This rifle is paired with the Mission First Tactical (MFT) Minimalist 6-position collapsible stock and a comfortable black polymer pistol grip. The MFT stock offers a slim, lightweight design that won’t interfere with shooting position, plus six length-of-pull adjustments to fit a wide range of body types and gear configurations. Together, these ergonomic upgrades enhance shooter comfort and control.

Optimized Gas System for Reliability

The carbine-length gas system is tuned to cycle a variety of bullet weights reliably. Whether you’re running 90-grain VLD match rounds or lighter hunting bullets, the gas key on the bolt carrier group and the adjustable break-cone-style gas block work together to ensure consistent function and minimal gas blowback. The semi-automatic action is smooth and predictable, designed for rapid, controlled fire.

6.5 Grendel Ballistics & Applications

The 6.5 Grendel cartridge is celebrated for its combination of compact case design, high ballistic coefficient projectiles, and efficient powder usage—making it ideal for both competition and hunting. From precision benchrest work to medium-game hunting, the 6.5 Grendel delivers long-range accuracy, moderate recoil, and excellent terminal performance. This rifle unlocks the full potential of that cartridge in a durable, semi-auto platform.

Optics-Ready & Accessory Friendly

With no factory iron sights installed, the upper receiver is optic-ready right out of the box. The flat-top Mil-Spec receiver accommodates red dots, holographic sights, magnified scopes, and night-vision devices. The free-float rail also supports backup iron sights, laser aiming modules, weapon lights, vertical grips, and more. Customize it to your mission requirements or shooting discipline.

Durable Hard Coat Anodized Finish

All aluminum surfaces are finished with a Type III hard coat anodizing process. This industry-standard finish protects against wear, corrosion, and environmental damage while maintaining a low-glare, tactical appearance. The black anodized finish is easy to maintain and resists scratching under rigorous field use.
