[QUOTE="Packrat 6, post: 1031730, member: 80288"] Yep...the darn thing is accurate as hell out to 1000 yds, as it ought to be, since Springfield built it and then accurized it. One of the local gun shops told me if it was in their stock, would probably go for between $3500 an $4000 with the Pelican 1750 case, since it only has only about 200 - 250 rods downrange since it was built. About the time I got it a couple of years ago, eyesight started going so dropped down to the the National Match where I could shoot factory ammo out to generally about 600 - 800 yds a lot cheaper. Since I would still have the NM could get the boys scouts, then my son would inherit the NM. Since the scouts go for about $1400 -$1600 new, would be a good trade for someone. Would put all the boys on the same playing field when shooting. I really shouldn't have traded off the CMP Navy .308 M-1 for the Remington 700 VTR that Remington just rebuilt for me since they misdrilled the scope mounting holes. Got a few other guns to go with the VTR, but have already given them out to family members. Well, will look at the Archangel stock some more, and see what I want to do. It had good reviews on a couple of the shooting sites with the M1A. Not so good with the Remington 700's though. I think the integral bipod is too weak and the stock too heavy for field work. If you haven't figured it out, really love the M1A. BTW, one other option is to have you build me a custom stock, but afraid it would run more than $25.00......:D Anyway, thanks again for the response, was worth a try! packrat, aka Bruce [ATTACH]42763.vB[/ATTACH] Threw in a picture of my son and the two boys......ROFL [/QUOTE]
