Who here has one? I'm thinking of getting one, I have the 17hmr upper and it shoots amazingly well. I'm guessing the same spring and buffer the 17 uses will work on the 22mag? I know BCA has some bad reviews but everything I have from them shoots and functions well.
 
I have had 2 BCA uppers. The bolt action was in 6arc and cycled so badly I sent it back. Customer service is amazing, no hassle returns and now I have a 22 ARC in side pull, 20 " barrel. Shoots very nice. I shot 3 Hornady ammo choices. The lightest 62 gr don't cycle well, lots of jams, the 75 gr Black shoots lights out and the 80 gr hunter was about 1.5" groups. No problems with jamming on those heavier choices. I am new to ARs so I don't yet know about gas systems and how to possibly adjust for the lighter ammo. This is so much fun that I will probably get a 6ARC in 16" side pull for a deep woods gun. Whatever Caliber you get, I think the value of a BCA is worth it.

True but I was also addressing whether or not to try a BCA with their history of bad reviews. With their price point, and no questions return policy, it makes it easier to try calibers that we may not have explored before.

I've had good results with their uppers, 243 and 17hmr so far. Had to put on an adjustable GB on the 243. I think the 22 mag would be a fun lil popper. Hunting buddy of mine has several too, other than gas block issues and needing tuned, he's happy.
 
I do not have a 22 mag upper. I do have 300 blkout and 6.5 Grendel. Both BCA have tons of rounds through them. Primary hunting rifles in S GA for deer and hogs. Both on PSA blem lowers with new stocks and triggers. Both very cost effective and I've never had an issue.

I have this in the 17HMR as well. It's the only BCA that I own, but it does shoot pretty darn good, especially for the price. I would assume the 22 mag would be similar.
