Hi, I have a BCM stainless 18" 1/8 twist rifle gas upper on a Colt HBAR II lower with a Geiselle trigger. I am trying to get as much accuracy out of it as I can.
When I put the rifle together the only BCG I had on hand was a Fail Zero.
It shoots 1 MOA to 1.5 MOA at 200 yards with 77 grain SMK's. That's as far as I can shoot without driving an hour to a gun club with a longer rifle range. (I have nearly 3000 rounds of Black Hills that I bought back in 2017 when prices were good)
I am wondering if I could get better performance if I upgraded my bolt.
Is this worth looking into or should I be happy with what I have?
I have seen KE arms offers a National Match chrome plated BCG that "Added surface area in the front of the carrier gives a tighter fit when the bolt is in battery for more consistent lock up"
