For the money you spend you can get an M1A that will outshoot it nine ways from sunday. Most people expect to get an accurate shooter when they spend $1500.
I thought long and hard about getting the M1A Scout, but decided against it. If you go with a new Springfield, it is just about as much as the FAL and I think the ergonomics of the FAL are better than the M1A. If the M1A had a decent pistol grip, I would probably have leaned that way and not searched out and learned about the FAL's, but in the end I think the FAL will be plenty accurate and a good buy.
