got a m1a about a month ago and was in no hurry to shoot it.  shot it today and these old eyes held around 1 1/2 " at 100 yds. with peep sights. damn, been 41 years ago last shot m14. very happy with springfield.

I would take a high power scope to improve upon that. Very nice shooting.

Nice shooting what are you using for ammo?
99% of all Lawyers give the other 1% a bad name. What I find hilarious about this is they are such an arrogant bunch, that they all think they are in the 1%.
