[QUOTE="TxPhred, post: 2705720, member: 56833"] C.O., I went all Wilson, main reason was to avoid any potential headspace issues. Their BCG also had the “double plunger” extractor. This double plunger was to assist in “clearing” the case better? I am getting many dented cases that are hitting the bump block behind the ejection port. I have a Superlative Adjustable Gas Block as I also shoot with a can. I adjusted the gas block per instructions and I feel I get what is needed. But I wonder if the BCG double plunger thing was an answer to a problem that did not exist. To save my brass from dents and also that I really don’t like picking up brass, I got a TacStar brass catcher which I am very pleased with and have it set to cover just before the bump block which eliminates the dents. Very pleased with my builds. As an aside, was not a fan of this caliber, but it does what it does very well. I thought I would change the barrel out for a 7mm-08 Wilson, I understand I can use the same BCG. But I’ve got brass, dies all components for this and nothing for the 7mm-08 so I don’t see this changing anytime soon. I buy the Berger 130gr OTM AR ammo and I get well into Sub MOA results. Plus they use Lapua brass so super good in that regard and I will reload this after I shoot it all. I want to try this on a prairie dog shoot soon. And I like just ringing steel at distance. Apologies for adding more information than you asked for. Be well, thanks for asking for my opinion. Fred [/QUOTE]
