BCA -10 | 243 Win.| Fixed and Re-Tested. First Field Test. 

Morning Dave. Another near 50° Dec day here!! ❤❤🌲🌲

Merry Christmas to all. Can't wait till the next video comes out next year!

Good morning Dave! That rifle can shot!! 243win. a great all around caliber, good for varmints & deer etc. You have a blessed Christmas too!!!

Merry Christmas Dave hope things are fixed.

Have a Merry Christmas Dave. I had to send my BCA 6.5 Grendel Upper back for repair in which BCA Service was excellent……

I put the female side of Velcro on my defector so it stopped beating up my brass. I also had to file and polish my lugs because the brass was fretting scratched up pretty bad. All good now.

Merry Christmas. 👍👍

Thank you, brother dave. May the Lord JESUS CHRIST bless you and your family. And make you prosperous through the new year.

Merry Christmas, Dave 🎉 I don't recall you specifying what was not working properly on the rifle. But happy it appears corrected.

Merry Christmas Dave. Hope you and Claudia are doing great.

Merry Christmas to you, Dave and to your family!

Great video sir! Kinda interested in this upper. Great review!

Merry Christmas to you, as well.

My BCA 243 handloads like to be 20 thou of the lands using H4350. Went from 1.35" to under 1/2 MOA (3 & 4"s).

Dave. Good video. Nice groups. Gun seems to be running well. Merry Christmas to you also, see you again next year (Lord willing). Take care.

That rifle shot that good with factory ammo it’ll shoot one hole with some of your roll your own ammo. Merry Christmas Dave and have a blessed new year.

Merry Christmas. I've been looking at BCA that 243 ia pretty decent with those 95ers

Merry Christmas Dave! I have a BCA 22-250 upper with a Noreen lower that shoot awesome. For the price the BCA rifles and uppers are a real deal.

Merry Christmas Dave!

Bought a 22” stainless heavy barrel upper and 20” socom version of the 243 BCAs. I had to return the 20” version because accuracy wasn’t acceptable. It was replaced after an 8 month wait. Both uppers shoot .3” at 10” yards with handloads. I never played with OAL to see if I could tighten my groups even more.

Merry Christmas to you and yours

Merry Christmas! ✝️✝️✝️

Merry Christmas

I have three BCA uppers. One centerfire, a .458 SOCOM and two rimfire a 17HMR and a 22 Magnum. The 458 took some magazine modification to feed which has nothing to do with the upper and it's a standard charging handle model not a side handle. The bolt head seemed a little off however it worked fine but damaged the case head somewhat it would have most likely worn some. I ordered a bolt head from Tromix anyway and the brass has no damage I tuned four magazines and used the Tromix followers in them made a huge difference. The rimfire versions had a couple of problems one might be attributed to my lower it's a Ruger. The charging handle when firing will blow back and strike the receiver and after only a couple of rounds loosens the hex screw and bends it making it useless. The spring and buffer they supply is part of the problem and also the Ruger lower. The buffer tube on the Ruger must be slightly longer allowing the supplied buffer to recoil further rearward and allowing the charging handle to strike the receiver. I did some measuring and confirmed this so I made a shim on my lathe and drop it in the buffer tube before installing the spring and buffer when attaching the rimfire versions. Dropping a quarter in there might have done the same thing I never tried it but it looks like about the same size. With the spacer installed the BCG handle cannot come back far enough in the tube to strike the receiver and the buffers soft nose contacts the rear of the tube dampening the recoil. I also have excessive case head bulging with the supplied buffer and spring especially the 17 HMR. I won't go into detail how I solved this but it can be done with different weights and buffer springs with the supplied buffer. I greatly reduced the recoil and case damage ultimately and also accuracy with the 17 HMR by trying different weights in the buffer. The 22 Magnum took different weight but was able to tune the recoil impulse and made a big difference suppressed.

Dave, looks like BCA did you well. I have been a bit leary about the non-standard AR-10 calibers. You put my mind at ease. I think I may have a build in my future, especially with the Christmas deals. I love your channel because you unashamedly share your faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. I also love it because I feel like you are a reloader for the common guy. There are some good channels out there, but they go down rabbit holes with reloading that are sometimes hard to understand. To add, you also answer posts and e-mail. Thank you so much for passing on your faith and knowledge to others. God bless you and yours. Have a very Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year.

Happy and healthy holidays your way! Good stuff, Strohmeyer! .243 rocks! What was the velocity on the deer season 95 XP’s?

What lower did you use and did you upgrade the trigger? I just ordered a bear creek 243 upper yesterday.

Seasons Greetings to You. What was the delayed click noise I heard after firing?

What was velocities of the Winchester ammo?
