Nice rifle. Probably a decent shooter too. The BCM's I've seen have all been great shooters..
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

Very nice. I have a 14.5" BCM upper with the standard FSB, and SOCOM barrel. I think it's also known as M4A1 profile barrel. Lower is a PSA stripped, that I put together, PSA premium BCG, and Primary Arms 5X prism with the ACSS reticle. I keep it stoked with the Magtech 77gr OTM. Essentially a MK 262 load. I like it a lot. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/WsC9xPu.jpg)

MM, I haven't seen many, if any Daniels Defense barrels that will hold 5 shot groups under an inch with good hand loads. Will you BCM manage this?

I haven't tried tuning any handloads for this.
It shoots the 77gr OTM under 2" consistently.
I kind of doubt sub-1" would be realistic with mine. Especially since it is chrome lined, non-floated, milspec trigger, standard carbine buttstock.
My intent with this one is more of a 'practical accuracy' type of rig.

Mine like the factory Barnes 70gr TSX very well. This is a great upper and highly recommend one. ![[Linked Image from imagizer.imageshack.com]](https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/xq90/923/rACu4y.jpg)

They make the straightest upper receivers. Makes it so easy to mount & zero scopes.
