New BCA Upper range report!
Posted: Mon Aug 27, 2018 12:54 pm
Hi all,i'm new to the forum, but have been following it for a while.Just got this new Bear Creek Arsenal .450 Bm upper, having read all the mixed reviews wasn't sure what to expect out of it.I had a 50Beowulf for a few years and wanted another big bore and the .450 looked promising . Anyway this upper looks very nice, change the follower in a colt 20rd mag.to a modded single and radiused the front to hold 8rds. Took it to the range the other day and sighted it in at 100 yd. with Hornady Black 250gr FTX . It ran flawlessly for the 20rd that i ran through it, and was more accurate than i expected it to be.The 4 rd group to the left is my sight in, then i put the target up and fired three rounds at the target, .900-.452 bullet diameter = .448 group. Needless to say i'm quite happy with it so far. Made a shell deflector (not the best looking) so i wouldn't have to chase cases at the range. Will be making some reloads using the 225gr FTX to try out .
