If you insist on a 20" upper, I'd suggest going with the BCM 20". If you're going to shoot it from the bench, throw a TA31RCO on it, some 75's / 77's and call it a day....
Not sure what you mean by the BCM being on par with an AK for accuracy though. Have you ever fired the BCM?

I want an AR that is more precise than my 2.5 mao SGL-31. It shoots 12 cent surplus rounds so for the AR to be justified I would want 1.5 MOA with surplus ammo, not match ammo or handloads.
I would want a 20" barrel for velocity to at least match the 5.45x39 surplus round.
I've seen the DPMS 20" bull barrel freefloated upper do this (shoot 1" MOA with Federal XM193AF), but obviously this is not a recommended rifle for defense duty. What I have seen from the BCM 20" has been no better than my Arsenal as far as precision.
From the recommended builders none offer this configuration, unless I am missing something.
Can someone recommend a quality AR upper that will beat the snot out of my AK that doesn't require expensive ammo for 1.5 ish moa precision?
