I'm familiar with the M1A, and they're priced too far out of my price range. I might go to $1,200, but that's it. To be honest I haven't priced them in a few years. Rejuvenating the M14 stockpile has me interested.

I have a Remington 788 Carbine in .308, and it's a tack driver. The 788 was a budget bolt action rifle from years ago. I understand you can't reload cases fired from the 788, though. Something to do with the locking lugs being on the rear of the bolt.

Thank you for your suggestions.
