[ARCHIVED THREAD] - DPMS 22LR Upper Range report

Posted: 2/8/2006 3:01:07 AM EDT

I purchased a DPMS 22lr upper last week, put it on top of a RRA lower. Went to the range for the first time with it last night. I fired approx. 300 rds. I used Winchester, Federal and CCI brand ammo. I had one FTF in the first 50rds. The remainder of my session went great. The gun performed extremely well and was quite accurate, and really fun to shoot.

What kind of upper? Was it the M-4 or 20" A2 style? I have the DCM 20" A2 upper, and plan on picking up an M-4 style later this year.

I have to agree, mine works great too. I have had one jam, and that was operator error (the empty case bounced off of my finger and back into the action).

It's the model that has the bull barrel and no front sight lug. I have been surprised by the performance so far.

How thick is that barrel under the handguards? Thicker than the barrel forward of the front sight?

A range report should have some grouping information, or was it just a Fun Range day?

Just a fun day. Mainly to see if everything functioned, after putting the lower together.
I'll have to look at the barrel thickness under the handguard.

I'll check this weekend and let you know.

Thanks!
