That's a BSF barrel. I used an aero upper since my high speed custom job was wrecked by cerakote. Easy fix, but I think I'll be keeping this spare in place for good. The rail is from Unbranded.I just bought a stripped lower from PSA that I really didn't need. (No Step on Snek). 6.5 Grendel is one possible destination for it. But I think I'll need better than PSA parts to shoot those kind of groups. What barrel, etc?
Nope. The Grendel bolt showed up prior to the barrel.So as I would have guessed, the barrel is the heart of accuracy. Everything else is pretty standard stuff. Bolt matched to barrel?
From what i've heard, I'd steer-clear of BCA, and pickup something of higher quality.I have a Bushmaster Carbon 15 in 5.56 and have been using it for hog hunting, but wanted to buy a 6.5 Grendel upper for Hogs and Deer. I have been looking around and noticed Bear Creek Arsenal has a 24" barreled complete upper for 272.00, anybody on here have any experience with this upper?
Build up of cerakote inside of the upper. Tolerances were so tight prior that the uneven coating made it impossible to function properly. That one has since been blasted, recoated and is on another build.Just curious how Cerakote job screwed up the project?
