I am in the market for a precision type upper and I've already got two BCM uppers that I love (16" BFH and 14.5"ELW).
Are these SS410 barrels a solid step up in accuracy potential from what I already have? I've already got a Vortex Viper PST 2.5-10x32 FFP in an ADM Recon mount waiting for what ever I end up with.
I'm also torn between 16" or 18". I wanted to get this upper
18" choice but it apparently isn't possible to order with the BCMgunfighter comp installed which I'm bummed about. It is available on the KMR equipped uppers but I like the MI handguard a little better.
My other choice is this one.
16" choice I get the handguard I want and a free comp. What is the story on this Ionbond finish they use on the barrel?
I doubt I'll shoot past 500 yards with this, so the 16" is probably more than enough?
Thanks in advance for helping me spend some $$$
