18 Monster Barrel 193% Better Than BCA !
#1
This barrel will be a MOA shooting barrel once it is broke in.
First shots in Barrel, first group 123gr hornady American gunner ammo.
Next is 123gr SMK’s with 27.7gr of 8208xbr, COAL 2.260.
Next is 90gr Speer TNT with 29.5gr of H335, COAL 2.200.
All brass was star line (new) and CCI 450 primers and was shooting at 100 yards.
I will never buy a cheap barrel again, it took me 6 months of shooting with the BCA barrel to get groups like this. Thanks again BFT for getting all these group buys together.

I put this in the post in the wrong spot, it probably needs to move to the build section, i am assuming.

After shooting the 18” monster barrel, and the first 5 shots was in a group, it was to easy, I was thinking to my self, wow I thought barrels had to be broken in before they would shoot accurate. Other members always said if it’s a good Barrel it will shoot good on the first shots, and will not have all those flyers. No more BCA for me, time is valuable these days.

So true.

Although the rednecks around where i live couldn't tell you what a group looks like. They think 5 on a pie plate is great shooting.

What can I say Sabine parish lol.

Lol.

I still remover first time at the range someone asked me what I was shooting.

Told him 6.5 grendel, young guy maybe 22 at the time kind of chuckled and said 300 wm is min for deer. I almost choked to death on my dip.
