Daniel Defense DD5 V4 URG .260

Product Description

The Daniel Defense DD5 V4 URG .260 is a complete upper receiver group built for shooters who demand precision at distance without punishing recoil. This configuration pairs the proven DD5 receiver platform with .260 Remington caliber, a high-ballistic-coefficient round designed for long-range accuracy on the same forged foundation as 7.62x51mm and 6.5 Creedmoor builds.

The 18″ barrel with 1:7 twist and rifle-length gas system deliver clean, manageable cycling. Daniel Defense’s 4-bolt connection system ensures rigidity where it matters most—at the receiver interface. Every upper is hand-assembled, quality-assurance tested, and test-fired before shipment, so you receive a verified performer.

Additionally, the user-adjustable gas block lets you dial in the action for your specific load or suppressed use. This flexibility makes the DD5 V4 .260 ideal for hunters, competition shooters, and precision enthusiasts who want to optimize their rifle without aftermarket modifications.
