Some questions about a sub $500 complete 18" 450bm upper
Posted: Tue Apr 04, 2023 7:39 pm
As I am right handed, and my wife is left handed, both my sons while they are carbon copies of me are left handed. Now for my dilemma.
As many here likely know I own a made for CVA by Bergara Cascade in 450BM and I absolutely love that rifle. Unfortunately it doesn't come in left hand in 450BM. Only left handed BA rifle I can find in 450BM is the Ruger American and it is rather pricy for what I get. That leaves me with either a single shot break breach rifle or an AR upper for one of my many AR lowers I have.
I am trying to find enough information to make an informed purchase on a complete 18" 450BM upper assembly in my price range of under $500. The uppers I have found so far have been ones sold by:
TLH Tacticle
https://members.tlhtactical.com/18-Aero ... p_556.html
Delta Team Tacticle
https://www.deltateamtactical.com/dtt-c ... 52433.html
Davidson Defence which apeares to be the same as DTT
https://davidsondefense.com/Davidson-De ... _4187.html
And of course Bear Creek Arsenal
https://www.bearcreekarsenal.com/450-bu ... nrail.html
Was hoping someone can give me a first hand recommendation on a good reliable 18" complete upper in 450BM and any experiences anyone has with the uppers I listed.
Lastly using handloads what kind of 100 and 200 yard accuracy can I expect out of a AR chambered in 450BM.
Great thanks,
Arthur.
