A few years ago I had a BCM Mod 2 with a hammer forged barrel I loved it but money talks to me so I let it go to a good home. Well since then I've owned several ARs (I'm ashamed to say how many) and I've built a few here and there. I had this inch that I couldn't scratch for a BCM Recce-16. I finally got my own and got to put some rounds through it.
Recce: short for recon Rifle (pronounced (Ricky) are a result of the MK-12 SPR not meeting all the demands of the warfighter. Please don't quote me on that 100% I'm going off of what I've been told from questions I've asked while down range.
Zeroing at 25m and confirming at 300m with a leupold 3x9 and a micro dot.

After shooting 300m and adjusting 3right and 3down I was dead on at 25m and 300m. A few inchs high at 50m, 100m, 200m. (I didn't take picture because I forgot my phone and 300m is a long walk)
I repeated the same steps for the micro dot but it only required 1right and 1down at 300m. I was a little accurate with the micro dot then I was with the scope.
With all that said and done i ran a few drills (V drill, 1-5 drill and 2sec rapid fire drill). I went 4.02 on the V, 3.94 on the 1-5 and 13rds in 2secs all hits in an 8" plate.

I bought this thinking I wouldn't like the standard barrel but after today I really like it. Only complaints are the trigger it has some take up and it's pretty gritty nothing an ALG won't fix. The stock is the standard USGI with will be getting swapped for a B5 or CTR.
