[QUOTE="DZelenka, post: 497325, member: 20543"] Is it a standard M1A? If so, it is a very long way from being competitive. the group sizes are a little big, but not surprising. Standard M1As are cool rifles but not terribly accurate. NM and Supermatch or better yet M1As smithed by an experienced (usually former military armorer) M1/M14 smith can be really accurate but are maintenance intensive. It is why service rifle competitors use ARs these days. By the way, my M1A load is an LC match case with military match primer, 42.5gr RL15 and a 175 Sierra Match King. It shoots really well. (Glenn Nelson built SuperMatch). Dan [/QUOTE]
