Brownells has DPMS uppers with either the standard barrel or the bull barrel.  My question is what are the pros and cons comarison to each other?  Is the bull any more accurate?  You get my drift.

Most people with the DPMS bull barrels report 1/4 MOA groups (stacking rounds on top of each other.)

The standard weight will probably shoot 1-1.3MOA.

The bull barrel is heavy, which is good for sharpshooter, varmint roles, but this can be a negative too if you have to carry it all day in the field. Weight will make the rifle more easy to shoot acccurately from the bi-pod.

The bull barrel doesn't have threading, so no FH without gunsmithing.


The std barrel really isn't terribly accurate, but it will accept a Flash Hider, and it is light and handy.
