Well, there's one dream rifle off the list. (Sigh.). Its not that I wouldn't love one, just that I don't reload and won't own a gun that doesn't use common and cheap ammo. Its too bad, and another argument for someone producing a good repro, but I guess I'll have to return my "dream rifle" fantasies back to the M1A.
FQ13 who thanks the board for helping me avoid a costly mistake. Unless of course that rod works as advertised, in which case, anyone got a deal on clips?
