There is a thread that is several pages long with range reports a pictures in this section of AR-15.com.   The DPMS bolt is similar to the 10-22 and Nordic bolts but the upper receiver is modified and not a mil spec  upper like CMMG.  From prior reports the new DPMS 22's are accurate and reliable.   The DPMS will use Black Dog. Machine and CMMG mags.  I would consider buying the new DPMS since I had 2 of the older DPMS designed 22uppers.

Vascar2 pretty much sums it up.
I did a test and report on the DPMS Bull barrel upper.
Shoots 1/2" at 50 yards.
Very consistant.
Very reliable.
You can find the report in the DPMS forum

Mine wouldn't run with a RRA 2 stage trigger out of box. The hammer had to have the top corner knocked down a hair so it could cycle, no big deal. This thing is FUN. I was just out this morning and shot a couple hundred more rounds flawlessly. Up to 6-700 and still no cleaning. It runs dirty just fine. Only 3 jams, all were ammo related. I was also able to hit a 4" plate off hand at 56 yards (4-5 of 10 anyway) just using a carry handle. Fit and finish are excellent, it's definitely no Chiappa. More and larger mags coming soon.

ETA: I'm looking for the bull barrel one.
