It’s just not as easy to set up and get accurate than a plain old bolt action rifle.Ī lot more fun though 😉 There’s a ton of info on accurizing these rifles at: My brother still shot a deer this year with my M14, so I’m not knocking its capability as a hunting rig. With some handy skills in unitizing or shimming the gas system, installing a solid scope mount (not as straight forward as on most modern rifles), changing out the spring guide and optionally the spring, some can get to 1-2″.Īfter replacing the bolt with a USGI unit, you can tighten headspace beyond the typically generous factory dimensions you could also fix up the mediocre trigger, and if you also replace the barrel you may be looking at sub-MOA. If you take a look through, you’ll find that most owners experience 2-4″ 5 round groups without tweaking. You’ve got a lucky rifle then, DON’T SELL IT. Considering the price, it’s hard not to justify buying one.
Simply nothing touches the typical $399 price for the regular length barrel version or the $449 for the short barrel version.
The Norinco jw-14 is a great value shooter, if your looking for a basic 22lr rifle for target practice this might be the one. Then there are the newer semi auto.308 rifles like the Kel Tek RFB, but at $2400, it’s a bit on the pricey side. But these are hunting rifles, and it’s hard to imagine that they’d handle the same abuse as a rifle originally designed for the military. The Remington 750 is ~$800 but may have issues with wandering zero, the Browning BAR is a great 308 at $1000+, and the Winchester SXR being made by Browning is an even better deal at ~$900.
