    No competition but I have rung steel out to and past 440 yards (on a good day) using my M1A offhand. Remember, I said "on a good day".
    Not too long after that, I handed the rifle to a "much younger" shooter to see what he could do with it. Just about anybody should be better than me??
    This kid, I say kid because my grand kids were older than he was and I was at least 3 times older than he, ran a 20 round clip thru the rifle to 440 + yards and rung steel with every shot. That told me there was NOTHING wrong with my rifle that a good set of younger eyes couldn't cure.

    Oz never gave nothing to the Tin Man, that he didn't already have.
