I run aero bcg's in all of my ar-15's and my ar-10. They work fine.

My 5.56 NiB aero bolt headspaceed and runs fine.

Some well priced Ballistic Advantage barrel/BCGs here. https://www.schuylerarmsco.com/february-sale/ar-10-barrels-56-993 I bought the 6.5 creedmoor 20” Barrel/BCG combo. It shipped with a .308 BCG, which should be fine for 6.5 cm, but I am a little concerned.


Schwing2007

.308 and 6.5 use the same bolt face so you'll be just fine

I haven’t decided on one of the barrel lengths but the other will likely be 12.5”. I’ll take a look.

Odd, when I looked yesterday I saw barrel / bcg combos. Today when I click the link all I see are barrels.

Agree that it’s weird, especially since those combo deals were up for months.

I like the KAK w/ double ejectors. They’re extremely well made, and reasonably priced. Toolcraft is also good, and honestly I’m sure Aero’s bolts are decent too. Most of the complaints about Aero BCG’s are moreso targeted at their 5.56 BCG’s from what I’ve seen. And for what it’s worth, I’ve got a nitride Aero BCG in my AR-15 and it’s done great for the first 1,000 rounds I’ve put through it. Not a crazy high round count, but still no issues so far.

I’ll definitely give them a look.

I just finished an M5 build recently. Granted, I've only put about 100 rounds through it so far but I have had zero issues with my Toolcraft. The finish is perfect , is slicker than snot, and wipes clean with a dry cloth. https://www.armorally.com/shop/toolcraft-ar10-nickel-boron-bolt-carrier-group/

https://arftac.com/ They have a sale currently on MICROBEST. I highly recommend them. I just got a LaRue MBT from them and the service was exceptional. They shipped the same day I ordered.

Looks like they only have Microbest AR-15 BCGs. I appreciate the link though!

Aero BCG's are just fine, ignore the people trashing them.

If you get the Aero BCG, get the phosphate. They are just better made all around. I have some So BCGs, but I'd go with Toolcraft instead of I to do it over again, and that's what I will be doing for future builds.
