I wouldn't be too concerned with CCAs if you haven't had trouble starting in the cold and you live in "a warm place". The reserve capacity of most H6 AGMs I've seen are generally around the same ballpark of OEM.
To explain the different batteries offerings by BMW, they are different group sizes (H6/H7/H8) and type (lead acid vs AGM) combinations thus offering differing AH/CCA/RC combinations.
Hope that helps.

Fantastic. Thank you.
OK, so looking at H6-AGM batteries, are there a short list of brands that are best?
Thanks.
