    As I understand it, the flared tail is supposed to enhance accuracy by ensuring that the BCG is relatively centered in the channel as it pushes a new round into the chamber. In this way the new round will be pushed in more squarely..? I have seen a High Power gunsmith make a modification to the carrier tail to accomplish this, and he claims accuracy improvement with such a technique.

    ETA: I literally signed up to ask this question.
    Proof Research found about a %23 accuracy increase just by using our BCG alone.

    They have systems to accurately and reliably measure if the round is feeding off the right or the left side of the magazine. So, I can't really shine that shoe any more. LOL.

    LANTAC E-BCG

    Got a black one on order. Unfortunately they sent the NiB one by mistake which just arrived. I have an email out to the Lantac contact email about how to resolve that.

    23%? Is that a typo?

    Yes. That was a shipping mistake and she's been properly chewed for it. She's going to send you a label to return the NiB one with the black nitride E-BCG first thing Monday. We're extremely sorry about this.

    Alright, well, it's officially on my list. One other question, are these BCG's going to work well with a 20" rifle-gas setup? It seems to me that this is marketed toward short barreled suppressed systems.

    Why would it not?

    Will the black nitride be a regularly stocked item or will this be a one time run?

    If I recall correctly, when the LMT "enhanced" BCG was originally introduced, I believe they recommended not using it on longer barreled guns. I was simply wondering if you had a similar recommendation. It sounds like I'm good to go here.

    I’ve been asked to clarify. Proof told us that is what they found with their shooter on their system over a milspec BCG. I apologize if I made it sound like that’s what you’ll see if you replace a JP or other really high quality carrier with ours. When going from a MilSpec BCG you will see an increase. That’s the increase Proof told the owner of the company at SHOT Show. They have the ability to measure extreme accuracy deviations - Hense my feeding comment. Not trying to mislead or make claims here. I can only relate what I’ve been told and in this case the owner informed us.

    So at 100 yards if your shooting one inch groups with a milspec BCG and you switch to the Lantac your groups may go down to .77 Thats a difference but not insane. 23% sounds like alot until you do the math.
    The best way to survive a violent encounter is to be the one inflicting the most violence.

    Do we have a sample size for this claim, or is this n = 1?
