    New Ammunition Search Engine

    Nice but shipping is usually expensive on ammo due to the weight. Picked up 5 50rd boxes of winchester 230gr. at the last gun show for $15 each. Don't find that too often but when I do I snag it quick. It's usually $20ish a box.

    Optics or Irons for a beginner

    I've always been a fan of iron sights. My philosophy is if you can shoot good with irons you'll be great with optics. However the basics/technique is what matters most with either. Easy trigger pull(don't jerk it)hold your breath 3 seconds then fire and don't flinch(this is the most difficult...

    Gunshow treasure SA M1 Garand (with pics)

    You could probaly trade your JLG stock for a decent EMcF but and EMcF in that condition might run $600. I have a few parts that you'll need if/when you decide to correct your rifle. As you stated to me the barrel is the biggest thing followed closely by the stock. Here's a pic of my EMcF...
