I asked the same question just a few days ago.

Hard to choose, neither is a bad choice. Both should be very accurate.

I'd look at what final configuration you're after, then see which brands have that (taking a wild guess, a hammer forged 16" Middy - would be between Centurion, DanielDefense, or BCM BFH - maybe throw in Noveske Light Recce).

Price out the upper (with accessories), and then compare the final setups on cost, weight, and your preference. They're all going to be very close in price, so once you've figured out which one suits your purpose best I'd go with that.

well they are both top of the line. I dont know who owns BCM but Centurion is vet owned that enough for me to make up my mind.

99.99 sure the owner of BCM "Paul" is former active duty Marine.

There are a few barrel manufactures you just cannot go wrong with. A few are BCM, DD, Centurion Arms, Noveske, Kreiger, some I am missing.....


I went with the CA and couldn't be happier. With CA I think of it like this. If you pull up to a parking lot in a Ferrari Enzo or Lamborghini people will be all over it. They know those cars well. Think of DD, BCM, Noveske as that set up right there. People rocking DPMS, OLY, Etc I have realized know about those companies but see it as out of their price range and hard to find. Not many actual stores stock them (I know depending on model of the DD, BCM, etc it really not much more than those, but trust me thats what they think, I know many people that think this....) Point is every one knows there the shit. Now, If you pull up in a Pagani Zonda Cinque, Koenigsegg CCXR, Mansory Rolls Royce Phantom (I could go on for quite some time lol) people will be like wtf is that and shit themselves. Know one really knows what the hell it is but when they see it they are floored. That's what it was like for me when I found out about CA. A small company that seemed to know what the hell was going on and had incredible specs! I was all over it after that!

Few things that sold me:

-The barrel is basically double chrome lined. Only other barrel that has this feature to my knowledge is the Noveske N4. That barrel at this time can only be bought with an upper.

-Monty uses Machine Gun Steel. The damn thing combined with the double chrome lining will out last you or the rifle lol.

-Monty Guarantees 1 moa or better with the right ammo.

-Small company, not that the other ones are flooding you local market. But alot of people are running bcm, noveske, etc, here and there. I wanted to be different I guess. I think soon enough CA will be just as well known as Noveske. I have never spoken to Monty, think maybe I emailed him once on barrel availability? Anyways, I can tell this guy doesn't BS around, he is trying to make the BEST money can buy. I appreciate that in a HUGE way. Basically he knows whats up if you will. If you buy a CA you will be happy, no doubt about it


Sorry for the rambling

Great points about Centurion:

-The barrel is basically double chrome lined. Only other barrel that has this feature to my knowledge is the Noveske N4. That barrel at this time can only be bought with an upper.

-Monty uses Machine Gun Steel. The damn thing combined with the double chrome lining will out last you or the rifle lol.

-Monty Guarantees 1 moa or better with the right ammo.

Also, the owner is active duty Navy, just FYI.

And like the Noveske N4 bbl, the Centurion bbl is hammer forged by FN, per Centurion's specs.

Noveske N4 / Centurion / BCM BHF all great choices.

You can't got wrong with any of those.

I thought that BCM's BFH barrels were also made by FN. At least I've read this in several posts.

That could be true, I do not know.

Can someone please confirm this? Thanks.
