I've got a Garand, and I'll take it any day over a AR, AK or other toy .22 It reaches way, way out, is deadly accurate, and will knock over a Bull Moose. It's a rifleman's rifle !
Yep. I've only sent maybe 20 hot down mine but was overly impressed with its accuracy and hit velocity. I like the fact that it's an antique that can keep up with any of my deer rifles. The only thing missing is recoil control for follow ups.. but it looks great over my mantle under ol' glory
I cut my teeth on a M-1 in the Corps. Marksmanship was a high point in the training. The recoil, and return to target is very manageable even at 500 yards, or more. It's just a matter of a rock solid position, and the use of a good sling to lock the rifle in. Too many people these days don't know how to use a sling, and go the easy way with a biopod (which bounces) with a real cartridge, is only good in prone, and doesn't always return to point of aim. The price of good marksmanship with a powerful rifle is training your body to work using positions which are a bit painful to start with. Besides an expert rifleman seldom needs more then one shot ! It's the spray, and pray boy's that need extended magazines that keep a rifle from getting low, and solid.
AMMUNITION CLIPS??? What are you arming these guys with, M1 Garands???
It's a great rifle.
You got me there
Multiple commies with one bullet. Its green deal complaint.
