[QUOTE="436, post: 1833479, member: 16609"] It would depend on how tuned you'd like to keep it'..., that's more about what the M1A is about. I have an NM service rifle model loaded that I've used for many years and it still stays in the 3/4 to 1 moa all day long range with my 168gr loads. Now, I'm sure if I hit the range regularly or just pounded steel in the hills day after day it would need some tuneup due to movement in the stock. I have a synthetic stock on mine, I know guys that are constantly re-bedding their rifles, most of them being match shooters and M1A geeks with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) :-) As for the Army, they beat the hell out of the M14 upgrades and keep the Armorers pretty busy trying to keep the accuracy where the end-user wants it. I found that replacing a few of the rifles parts with some of the high-end aftermarket M1A goodies (not bling, bling! ) equipment that really works'.., seemed to have a favorable outcome in the end over the years. Just my take and .02 [/QUOTE]
