I just took the pain and bought the M1A Precision that I have been lusting after. It is 6.5 Ceedmore. I have never owned an M1A and my only experience with the platform was an M14 with iron sights many years ago. I am going to scope it. Please school me on the scope mount I should use. Thanks CMSGT USAF (Retired) Chief of Police (Retired) | ||

I can tell you one thing....don't buy cheap. You'll only regret it it. Pricey but top quality. https://www.brownells.com/opti...=SADLAK%2bINDUSTRIES or... http://www.smithenterprise.com/products03.03.html From time to time the Springfield receivers themselves are out of spec somewhat causing the mounting to be an issue and getting it sighted in. | |||

Sadlak, Smith (SEI) or Bassett. I run a GG&G SOCOM II mount on my EBR, however the absence of a top rail on your rifle eliminates that option. Isaiah 54:17 - No weapon formed against us shall prosper.... What do I want? A time machine. When do I want it? Irrelevant. | |||

Yeah, that M14 video guy... |
Sadlak steel, Sadlak Airborne or Bassett. ARMS-18 is the lowest and it's solid, but you may have to tune the ejector (cut a coil or two off) to make sure the spent case clears the receiver. Tony.

I've used the A.R.M.S. #18 mount on my loaded model and find it to be a very secure mount. | |||

SADLAK it is. Thanks for the advice. Excited about picking up the rifle today CMSGT USAF (Retired) Chief of Police (Retired) | |||

I'd be interested in hearing how that thing shoots. Seems to me that a M1A in 6.5 would be a real pleasure to operate, even before you take into account the downrage ballistic benefits of the cartridge. | |||

I have only been able to find one box of ammo at an exorbitant price, and have not been able to get the scope and mount I want. I went to shoot the rifle from the bench with iron sights yesterday-the rifle is dead nuts accurate as expected, with surprisingly mild recoil. Then the treasure hunt for the spent brass. I am really looking forward to getting the scope on it, it has the prospect of becoming my favorite rifle. CMSGT USAF (Retired) Chief of Police (Retired) | |||
