M1A Scope

B-52
I am going to put a scope on my M1A.I found a used 6X Springfield scope in a shop locally for 350.00. Would yall think this would be a good scope for the rifle or should I put the money in another direction?

    I am interested in buying a scope for my Springfield M1A.Springfield sells a goverment model scope ( I can't recall off hand the specifics of the scope) for the M1A, but it seems a bit pricey at over $500.Any recomendations on a good affordable(under $200) scope for this rifle? Shooting would be at 100-300 yards.Thanks in advance.

    The third or fourth gen. Springfield mounts are good. Sadlack is most likley the best.
    There was a post about M1A mounts a few days ago. Do a search for it.

    I have one of the Sprngfield scopes and it is OK. I think the reticle is too small.

    Springfield Inc has bought scopes from several sources; many were bad. No way to tell from markings which are good, & which are bad.

    ARMS mounts are good for the M1A.

    Well the search feature would have turned up this very recent topic on mounts, http://forums.gunbroker.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=499224

    As for the scope the one I HAD was decent but not a $350 scope IMHO. Now at $200 or under sure. Like the others have said there were some bad SA scopes out there and no way to tell what ones they were.
