I tried one last night, which was stupid because I was still grunting and moaning about being sore and tired from the contest. Got it to 90 degrees after a good fight and it stopped moving from there. Fresh, maybe it would have gone a little more. These are good bolts.

The 5/16 grade 2 in 7 and 6 inch are both easier than the red, the 6 inch is close to the old shiny reds, but signif easier than the new ones, at least the ones I have bent that is...Something that looks cool and is easier than the 7 in 5/16 grade 2 is a 7 inch 3/8 bolt with all threads....Brett

90 degrees seems to be where I have the most trouble assuming I can kink it. My hands don't quite interlace at this point yet it seems like I can't get much out of double overhand. Any advice? To clarify I'm sure as heck not implying I can get a 5/16 G5 to 90 degrees, I'm talking about in general.

Rest up and go get it man, that is the farthest I've heard. I don't know of anybody else even kinking em, doesn't mean somebody hasn't but I haven't heard. Good job at GGC to man, I knew you had a top placing in you.
