Default BCL-102 vs ATRS modern hunter

Hey guys,
I've got an option to purchase a new BCL-102, I've been tossing around purchasing one of these two rifles as I'm sick of playing with my toys at ranges only.... I don't want a Restricted

The BCL-102 is about $1000 less, some say it doesn't shoot as well as the ATRS.

Thoughts, pros and cons of each?

Some will say "You get what you pay for.", implying the more expensive your rifle the better the quality.

Some will say "Either rifle can shoot better than I can.", possibly implying they aren't Pro shooters who require Match accuracy.

Any way you slice it, in the end you're the one who has to pay for it & use it... "To each their own", I say !

If you're "playing with a toy", I'd likely go the cheaper option and spend some of the $1,000 on personal modifications.

Damn where'd you find the bcl? Was just looking for one, couldn't find one though. Ah well
Got the wr762 and jr carbine instead.

SFRC is having a presale right now. Not sure if any are left.

I have a BCL coming Friday. I hope this second batch doesn’t have the QC issues the first batch had under NEA.

I would go BCL over the MH, on CGN mystic precision does a comparison between the two.
They both seem to have roughly the same accuracy, but I'd love to see what the BCL could do with a match barrel.

There's at least 6 new ones for sale on CGN and the Ammo Source has some.

Finally bought a BCL 102 under the IOP. I'll see how it shoots as I'd like to use it for hunting.
