Looking for a 308 BCG for an Aero M5, is there anything in particlur I should look for/get?
Or just grab an Aim bolt for $130? |

Just about any mid-grade BCG will be fine. HPT/MPI is nice, but not required.

The Father's of freedom Microbest on PSA are back in stock for $99. They're basically a Microbest BCG but with Sprinco springs. I'm running 3 of them and you can't beat it for the price.
https://palmettostatearmory.com/psa-custom-full-auto-phosphate-bolt-carrier-group-by-microbest.html Or for $139 you can get the Chrome Microbest BCG with upgraded Sprinco springs and OCKS fasteners. https://arftac.com/microbest-ar15-5-56-c158-mpi-all-chrome-bolt-carrier-group-premium/ |

Your Aero rifle should be fine with your $130 choice , but ... rpol98 has mentioned this before... look for a 308 BCG that has a tapered end at the carriers retaining pin area... like this ( FWIW, not a fan of Nib BCGs ) https://aimsurplus.com/products/aimsurplus-308-7-62x51-bdg-nib-bolt-carrier-group Verse this... https://aimsurplus.com/products/aimsurplus-308762x51-nitride-bdg-bolt-carrier-group Less likely to batter some ( not all ) lowers at the buffer tube threads. |

for 308 M5,
wait for the sales at Primary Arms for the Aero M5 BCG or Lantac 308 BCG, last sale, the Aero was at 159 and the Lantac was $169 |

I used an Aero bolt for my Aero M5, just to be sure there were not fitment issues with the upper. The only non-Aero M5 core hardware I didn’t use was the barrel, went with a Criterion instead and glad I did. |

If no adjustable gas block, then the Bootleg is nice.

I have an RCA adjustable in my .308. It's very nice.
