Be careful of what surplus you shoot. I have a friend that was shooting "surplus" in his brand spanking new Springfield M1A match grade and on the eighth round it blew up. I wasn't there and don't know the particulars but, the rifle is at Springfield now and when results come in I will post.

Shew me thy ways, O LORD: teach me thy paths. "there are few better cartridges on Earth than the 7 x 57mm Mauser" "the .30 Springfield is light, accurate, penetrating, and has surprising stopping power"
