I know this has been asked before but it's quicker to ask again. A friend wants a DPMS and can't decide between 20" or 24" bull barrel. He's most concerned about accuracy. The local gun shop made him a good deal on a 20" bull with removable carry handly. What about the 16" super bulls? Are they any more accurate? I know the 24's shoot but don't know anything about there 20's. Velocity is really not a concern. Thanks. |

a 24" barrel will do everything a 20" barrel does, but not the other way around. I personally haven't noticed a big difference with the two. But unless you're shooting past the 600 yard mark I'd go with 20". Why carry the extra weight? He might want to think about picking it up sometime or shooting while standing of kneeling. Can't go prone all the time and they don't have benchrests while hunting. |

Quoted: How does everyone's Dpms shoot? What are the average groups? These were the first few shots out of my DPMS 16" bull http://ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=118&t=180862&w=searchPop . It was 20 deg out so I did not have too much time to bring the scope in but this is what I ended up with at 100 yards. I can assure you the weapon can do much better it will just take a little fine tuning... |
