Description
Picture this: you’re on a long-range course, the wind is a factor, and you need a round that carries authority out to 800 yards and beyond. You need a platform that’s built for stability and precision, not for clearing rooms. That’s the exact scenario the DPMS GII Bull 7.62X51 NATO 24″ Bull Barrel Target Crown A2 Stock 20 Rd Mag is engineered for. It’s a dedicated, long-range AR-10 platform built on a modernized, lightweight GII receiver set, featuring a heavy-contour 24-inch bull barrel for sustained accuracy and a fixed A2 stock for a solid, repeatable cheek weld.
When it comes to putting consistent, powerful rounds on distant targets, the foundation is everything. The DPMS GII Bull’s receiver set is a refined, lighter-weight evolution of the classic AR-10 pattern. The real story, however, is that massive 24-inch bull barrel. This isn’t a pencil-profile barrel meant for carrying all day; it’s a rigid, heat-dissipating cylinder of steel designed to minimize harmonic vibration and maintain point of impact through long strings of fire. The target crown protects the meticulously cut muzzle, ensuring your shot breaks cleanly every time. At just over $965, this rifle delivers serious long-range capability without a custom-shop price tag.
Let’s talk about the fixed A2 stock. In a world of adjustable carbine stocks, why go fixed? Stability. The full-length rifle stock provides a consistent length of pull and a perfect platform for your cheek, eliminating variables that can affect your sight picture from one position to the next. It pairs with the rifle’s overall 44-inch length to create a balanced, steady hold, whether you’re shooting from a bench or prone. The 20-round Magpul PMAG it ships with is a proven, reliable standard—and the system is compatible with other SR-25 pattern magazines. Here’s the thing—this rifle is built to be a workhorse right from the start. It’s drop-in ready, requiring no gunsmithing to get you on the range and on target.

Pros: The heavy bull barrel is a laser beam, providing outstanding accuracy potential and heat management. The fixed A2 stock offers unmatched stability for precision work. The modernized GII platform shaves weight where it counts. You get serious .308 capability at a very accessible price point of $965.46.
Cons: This is not a lightweight, patrol-style rifle. The 24-inch barrel and fixed stock make it long and less maneuverable in tight spaces. It’s a specialist’s tool, optimized for a specific role—long-range target engagement.
So who is this rifle for? It’s for the precision-minded shooter who wants a dedicated .308 platform for the 600+ yard line without the complexity or cost of a custom bolt-action. It’s for the hunter setting up over a wide bean field or mountain draw. It’s for the tactical competitor who needs a reliable DMR (Designated Marksman Rifle) for a course of fire that rewards accurate, powerful hits. This rifle ships to Missouri and compliant US states, ready for your FFL transfer.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this rifle compatible with all AR-10 parts and accessories?
A: No. It uses the specific DPMS GII receiver pattern, which is different from the original DPMS Gen 1 or Armalite AR-10 patterns. The upper and lower receivers are proprietary to the GII system, though it uses many common small parts and is compatible with SR-25 pattern magazines.
Q: Can I swap the fixed A2 stock for a collapsible one?
A: Not easily. The A2 stock is fixed to a rifle-length buffer tube system. Converting to a collapsible stock would require changing the entire buffer tube, buffer, and spring to a carbine system, which may not be compatible with the GII’s bolt carrier group. The rifle is designed and balanced around its fixed stock.
Q: What type of optic is best suited for this rifle?
A: Given its 24-inch barrel and .308 chambering, this rifle is ideal for medium to long-range optics. A variable-power scope in the 3-15x or 4-16x magnification range with a Mil or MOA reticle is an excellent match for exploiting its accuracy potential at distance.
