m1a scout *pics*

[Crazed_SS]

just picked up my m1a from turners and want to put a scout scope on it probably a burris do any of you have the 2x7x32 or the 2.75x20 and should i go with the fix power or the adjustable power? I'm lost on the decision never had one or shot one or looked threw one.Ill be mostly shooting targets but will also hunt with it but probably no shots longer then 300 yards. any help would be appreciated thx

Someone actually just started a thread for Scout scope recommendations..

Also, as someone already mentioned in this thread, the iron sights on these rifles are excellent.

Bedding the rifle is a good way to get some accuracy out of it too. And USGI wood is really cheap.
