Need some advise on purchasing M1a
I am interested in purchasing a M1a and can't decide on the Scout squad in 308 or a NM in 308. I want to hunt out to 300 to 400 yards mule deer, white tail, and cow elk. I also want MOA or better accuracy. I also want to shoot with a scope. I have a Swarovski PV1 I want to use. Will the 18" brl give me the energy and vol. to hunt with at that range?

Re: Need some advise on purchasing M1a
During the recently openned mule deer season here in Nevada, my son used a Socom 16 to get his deer. The range was approx. 280 to 300 yards, using 150 gr. fusion brand load. Two rounds fired, deer droped within 4 feet past where he was seen. Mule buck was 4 X 4 rack dressed weight 130 lbs. 18 inch barrel would be imo quite acceptable for hunting.
