The Daniel Defense DD5 V5 in 6.5 Creedmoor and black is the longest-barreled rifle in this DD5 group, with a 20-inch cold hammer forged S2W barrel (Daniel Defense part no. 02-165-30063-047). The 1:8 twist and 6.5 Creedmoor chambering are aimed at flat trajectories and low wind drift at distance. A Rifle +1 direct impingement gas system suits the longer barrel, and the user-adjustable gas block lets you tune for suppressed or unsuppressed shooting. It is a precision semi-auto for long-range targets and medium to large game.
