8.6 BLACKOUT
By the time you are reading this, the stork will have delivered the newest baby to the Bear Creek Arsenal family: the 8.6 Blackout. The proud parent is the 6.5 Creedmoor. This amazing caliber defies conventional logic by using a 1:3 twist in a 10.5” barrel to produce a legitimate three-hundred-yard SUBSONIC round. It will also be available in a rifle-length barrel for the traditionalist. The platform is AR10. It accommodates 160 – 225 gr. bullets in supersonic loads and 285-350 gr. in subsonic loads. This will be the twenty-sixth caliber available to our customers.
.30-06 Barrels
Next in line are 22” and 24” barrels lengths for our BC-8 platform .30-06 by June 10. These will get you extra yardage for those long-range trophies.

BC-202
The current release date of the much-anticipated BC-202, a .22 Magnum in a semi-auto non-AR platform, is mid-June. These come standard with a Hogue over-molded stock, detachable ten-round magazine, billet receiver, and M1913 picatinny rail. Great for hunting including groundhogs, rabbits, squirrels, and up to coyote-size animals.
BC-102
Recently, BCA released its first polymer lower, full-size 9mm handgun: the BC101. Now, its baby brother will be released the last week of June: BC102. It is simply a compact version of the BC101 with all the same features:
- RMR Cut for optics
- 416R Stainless Steel barrel
- Bear Fur Stippling on grip for better control
- M1913 Picatinny Rail for accessories such as flashlight
- Window slide cuts
- Photo luminescent Night Sights
- Slide serrations for better grip
- Two (2) 15 round magazines
.22 ARC
This is another caliber that has superior ballistics. With a 62-gr. bullet leaving the muzzle at 3,300 fps, it far exceeds more common calibers. The increased velocity increases the effective range without increasing recoil. With a faster twist it will also stabilize heavier bullets. It is still in the AR15 platform. Target release is mid-July.
Enjoy your BCA products and above all: BE SAFE!!!
