As you probably know DCM matches are Approved NRA Tournaments and the rifles used have to conform to specific standards. Not sure what you mean by a tricked out AR. There are some minor modifications that are permitted for M1s, M1As and ARs, but the rifles start out on a level playing field. The High Masters at our matches often shoot rifles other than an AR. However, the results are the same in that the ARs usually turn in the highest scores. If you like, I can send you the score sheets for the last ten years for review. Have you ever shot the 100 yard DCM match with an AR, or even own an AR? All the best...

Adam, actually we use a 62 grain "green tip" but most of m4 s are getting 77grain sierra 'open tip' match because as we all know hollow points are against Geneva convention. They fly good but you must also consider we also have 240 gulf and saw machineguns with us and most squads also have dm rifles.(5.56) . There are no perfect assault weapons. Each has pro and cons and you just have to weigh it against your circumstances
