Im looking into getting an M1A for my next rifle, and plan on target shooting using a scope with it. I see that as far as springfield goes, they make: "Standard" "loaded" "national match" and "super match" rifles.. my question is how big of a difference is there between them, and is it worth paying the extra price. I want a rifle that can group around 1" at 100 yards, can the "standard" rifle do this or do I have to get one of the national or super matches to achieve this accuracy. Any thoughts would help thanks. My main questions:
1. does stainless steel give any different accuracy than one with a carbon steel barrel?
2. How much does glass bedding affect accuracy?
keep in mind I will rarely ever take it out past 100 yards because there are no ranges around here past that distance
Thanks for your response. My main concern is paying more for a rifle that is overkill for what I want to do: Target shoot at 100 yards with 1" accuracy
