This is the one you want. pull the trigger! - Cryptic 6.8mm SPC/.224 Valkyrie/.338 Spectre Bolt Carrier Group (BCG) - Complete

This is as much a piece of art as much as it is the heart of my 6.8 SPC hog gun.

The fit and obviously the finish is beyond most all other BCGs, and the quality of the carrier steel (aircraft quality 8620 treated to 60-61 Rockwell) and bolt (Carpenter 158) is certainly worth the few extra bucks. MPI inspected and HP batch tested. The finish is so smooth and deep, it almost looks like a powder coat as opposed to chrome, but that’s only because Cryptic is so good at what they do.

The case size of the 6.8 being around .420”requires a thinner bolt face than the standard bolt fact, so the peace of mind and potentially added reliability means something when a couple hundred pounds of angry razor toothed meat decides they don’t like you. The idea that the rifle might go “click” instead of “bang” doesn’t enter my mind when I pick up this rifle. This bolt headspaced perfectly with my 14.5 ARP and rides slick in the WMD upper.

This is my first Cryptic but it won’t be my last. If you can find one on sale, I recommend becoming a customer of Cryptic. Made in the USA and based in Denver, these guys stand behind their products with a Lifetime Warranty.

That means you only have to buy ONE. After your barrel choice, the next is BCG. You will love this one.
