RAM2940 Posted December 22, 2018 Report Share Posted December 22, 2018 Getting ready to purchase a BCG for 6.5 Cr. and wanted opinions on what carriers are reliable. I was looking at the Toolcraft double ejector, with smaller firing pin, is this a good choice. I have a Wilson Combat barrel with Aero M5E1 Upper.

98Z5V Posted December 23, 2018 Report Share Posted December 23, 2018 (edited) Toolcraft is never, ever a bad choice. Since the demise of the commercially-available DWilson BCGs a few years ago, the Toolcraft is about the only thing I go with now.

Is $180 from Arm or Ally a reasonable price from a decent vendor, or should I look elsewhere? Suggestions? Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't say if the price is good, but I ordered a BCG from them for a prior build and had no issues with Arm or Ally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobPLSCA Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 Thanks for the input, Doc. I went to order after reading your comment, and they were sold out... Go figure... Anyone else know where they are available? If so, tell me in a PM, so it doesn't get poached again... I was thinking of the nickle boron one...

RAM2940 Posted January 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 (edited) That's where I ordered my Toolcraft BCG from, the 308, 6.5 and 260 are all the same BCGs. Bag had all 3 calibers written on it. Read the description for the 3 BCGs, and I also emailed and confirmed with them.

The nitrided one is in stock right now, at a SMOKIN' PRICE! https://www.armorally.com/shop/toolcraft-6-5-creedmoor-bolt-carrier-group-black-nitride/ Arm or Ally used to be a different name - they changed the name to Arm or Ally when they started branching out into hard parts. I'd shopped with them before the change, when they were primarily reloading supplies, and they are SOLID. Great company. Don't hesitate to do business with them - they are very good.

98Z5V Posted January 19, 2019 Report Share Posted January 19, 2019 Previously, they were Monmouth Reloading - and they kicked ass at what they did. They still do kick ass - they just offer more now, with the addition of hard parts as well as reloading supplies. They're a damn great company, brother.

carverelli Posted January 21, 2019 Report Share Posted January 21, 2019 A few places I shopped ir BCG made it clear I needed a high pressure bolt with a small strong firing pin for me 6.5 creedmoor build. I went with the Ni-Boron from aero precision as they seemed like a reputable company. Lol, they probably dont even make the carriers but put their name on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
