We now have a BCL Siberian in our possession and will begin the 10,000 round test.

We are looking for help with this from those who wish to take part in testing.

The rifle will be going to the following locations (in no particular order) so if that's somewhere you can attend a group shooting event of the rifle and you'd like to take part email us at cfet10K@gmail.com

- Prince George
- Kamloops
- Vancouver
- Edmonton
- Calgary
- New Brunswick
- Ottawa with carleton university firearms association

Alternatively if you have other ideas on how you can help us please email us at the above address

Can someone just turn up at an organised test event with ammo and give the siberian a go?

How is the WK181 doing?

Yes, but you need to email us at cfet10k@gmail.com as we form a test schedule we'll release it to our tester list. Core testers have to shoot a minimum of 500 rounds per person where as event attendees can shoot as much/little as they like.

The WK181 is at 7865 rounds and going back to the range tomorrow hopefully to finish of the remaining 800ish rounds that the Calgary testers have left. Then it is going to Edmonton where fingers crossed it will cross the 10,000 round line and come back to HQ for a final look over the publishing of the report
 
Are these simple 'milage' tests, or are you measuring and documenting statistical analysis of anything else?

Are you doing this as part of a competition or some other fun shoot?
Or, if you are simply looking at wear and tear / reliability, - is this just a fairly labourious 'bullet dump'?

They already tested the WK181 and are still at it, you can see a link here somewhere or on their fb page Canadian Multigun. I expect the test for the Siberian to be similar.

The WK181 5000 round initial review can be seen here the 10,000 round report is significantly more detailed and we hope to release that by the end of June/July

We put each rifle through 10,000 rounds of factory ammunition via multiple testers who are free to utilise the rifle as they please providing they follow a strict set of rules & ethics.

A structured process exists for when the gun is cleaned in the first 4500 rounds (1000 rounds then cleaned, then an additional 3500 rounds with inspection of how dirty the gun gets and wear and tear after)

Rifles are used for hunting, competition, casual range sessions, longer range shooting and more. Depending on the time of year environmental testing is conducted. Sadly -40c is hard to find in July and holding each rifle for 1 year minimum is impractical given the idea is to give shooters information on new products BEFORE they rush out and buy one.

A significant component is of course the wear & tear and reliability so some of it can be laborious. But it is at least consistent
 
Pictures of first range trip
with the 1:8 twist I was thinking the 55 gr would be more accurate then the 50gr But
the 50 gr were impressive, ( for what it is ) i let the barrel cool down between groups, yes groups are opening as the barrel is warming up. trigger is around 6lbs ( measured with a real trigger squale), rifle is functionning well.

Thanks, I missed that the first time as I was surprised by the groups lol.

Me too, but then not since the Siberian seems to be the most accurate one so far. The highly praised Lockhart has terrible groups if you can believe youtube - the guy just says that the groups open up a lot without actually showing any groups. It is a more simple design, yes. Haven't heard of any failures recently either. Maybe it works just fine the way it is. The groups are only 3 or 5 shot groups but fair enough, not bad.

To me, a big reason not to buy the Lockhart is the design with the AR charging handle, buffer tube and so on. I know this is what motivates many people to buy it but in the current climate, no thanks.
 
They took away the the RA XCR, no CH on that.

I’d get whatever floats your boat, for me it’s the rear CH,DI. But until they get the BC figured out or ATRS gets back on the go , I’m gonna stick with my Siberian.
