Shooting a good .22 semi-auto rifle can be one of life’s great pleasures, especially if you’re with family and/or friends, it’s simple pure fun. That’s what we found with the BC-201 from Bear Creek Arsenal, it’s fun to shoot and it’s a straight, precise shooting little rifle. When it comes to precision shooting, Bear Creek […]
