Is the BCL 102 worth it?

[ted_dent]

Is my 102 perfect, no. Did I send it out for warranty work twice, yes. Would I buy one again, HELL YEA!! It's an amazing tinker rifle.

Mine currently sports a 6.5cr match barrel, triggertech trigger, and a whack of other AR10 parts. Swapping barrels is a breeze (takes standard off the shelf DPMS barrels). Mine and my friends (he also converted his to 6.5cr) shoots sub MOA at 100 all day long.

Rifle is backed by a lifetime warranty backed by SFRC (Ryan stands by this product).

I can't wait to get another upper and have one in 243 soon.

In your pic what's the gun at the top?

If you want to know what type of accuracy to expect look here. Just because someone says handloads doesn't mean anything unless they developed those loads for that rifle and know what they're doing behind the trigger.

Medium contour, fluting, and "match" chamber do not add up to a match grade barrel, these rifles suffer from stringing as they warm up just like most cheap barrels do. I'm ok with that, I would have preferred a lighter barrel and skip their so called match chamber in favor of a reliable rifle that would feed any ammo though.

Nail on the head Sir. 100% agree.

I cant wait to get mine and work up a load or loads for it.

In regards to that testing and the one for the MH, you shouldn't really be advocating this, cheap barrel for the 102???
I just read Jerry is getting stringing with the MH on the 5th shot with an expensive??? quality??? barrel.

He is blaming it on the bolt locking up on the last shot, the bolt catch.
He has no idea what he is talking about as the bullets have left the barrel before the bolt carrier has a chance to go rearward.

I wish I had more trigger time. I do want to change out the trigger and smooth it out as well as reduce the weight a bit. Its really unrefined for the price factor, but I understand how much $$ their MFG is wasting couriering all these small batches of parts around.


If I did not get it, I would be kicking my self. Specially if I missed this years fall hunts.

Looking forward to when they are in the position to sell extra uppers or have a special barrel run. It would be great to have a 243 for coyote season, In SW Ont. I cannot Hunt with it.
