Hey guys I'm looking at ordering a BCM recce 14 with a battle comp and KMR. Does anyone have any range reports or know what kind of accuracy I would be able to expect. The other option would be a DD V7. Any comments about the DD are also welcome.

BCM recce 14 accuracy?

BCM and DD are both top tier rifles but they are not target guns. You might get lucky and do better but I wouldn't expect than 1.5-2.5 moa from either of them.
Assuming it's their typical chrome lined barrel they seem to be 1.5-2 with a good load. Also why the battle comp? It's expensive and kind of sucks compared to other compensators out there recoil wise.
Plus don't know if the BCM rifles are even available yet or what kind of backlog they have.

Like said above, likely somewhere around 1.5 MOA.
Not sure if you want an alternative, but you could order a very similar BCM upper with the 14.5 ELW (or ELW fluted) barrel and I think the groups would be better. Not precision, but better, maybe 1 MOA give or take. There have been some very good reports on the ELW barrels on m4carbine.net. Going this route gets you a lighter and likely more accurate barrel and saves you some money, $1350 ($8-900 for the upper with either a BCM comp or BC1.5 pinned and about $435 with a BCM lower from G&R).

The SS410 barrel is definitely the way to go for accuracy, I just wasn't sure if he was only interested in the 14.5" barrels. Can't really go wrong either way.
I second this, especially if you think you will EVER change muzzle devices. I ran a BC on my gun for a while and then decided I didn't like the muzzle movement or flash signature. I would have been up a creek had it been pinned.
For pure accuracy there are much better choices than BCM.
For relibaility and quality, BCM is among the best.

+1. Mine have never really shot better than 1moa if I really push for a good load, 1.5-2 is very realistic but love the reliability and Quality.
I've got one of their 16" ion bonded SS barrels and shot a hair over MOA with Federal AE 55 gr, much tighter with better ammo. Could've been luck but this barrel hasn't shot badly with any ammo.
