[QUOTE="rost495, post: 46085, member: 1768"] Unless things have changed recently, (I doubt they have much) I'd seriously sugggest just buying rack grade with wood stock. My early M1As were all like that and all could get 1 moa or just a bit better with reloads. Get the trigger done and a bedding job and you were pretty much assured of .75 moa. Pay almost twice as much for bells and whistles and you'll more than likely have to have the trigger redone and the gun rebedded anyway. IE they don't do the best of jobs. Good M1A smiths are easy to find if you go to FL Highpower and ask. Hook Boutin is one of the best, really reasonable and quick. Ask questions and let the answers build up. Fulton Armory is one to totally avoid. FWIW you can get an M1A much better than a super match for 1000-1200 bucks a lot of the time on that sight IIRC. Thats a Krieger barrel(how many rounds depends) and a McMillan stock and spend less than the super match. Jeff [/QUOTE]
