Read a lot of posts about the M305, but some of the questions I have seem to not find the right answer.

1. What is the expected accuracy of a stock M305?
2. What are the most important mods as far as reliability/accuracy that have to be made to achieve the desired grade? An estimate would be great appreciated.
3. How is the stock or modified m305 compares with the original
Spingfield? Is the effort/money worth it?
4. What is the accuracy of the modified M305 ?
5. Who has some M3105s in stock? Anyone selling modified ones with proven accuracy?

I know some of the questions have been debated before, but .....

Thanks.
 
1 Great with the right ammo and shooter
2 NM op-rod spring guide ($60), GI Op-rod spring ($7 from me)
3 A regular M305 with even a bedded Norc stock I have seen shoot SUB MOA.
SA is not worth it. You can rebuild your norc and have a better/cheaper rifle.
4 as good as any M14 type can be, use a krieger heavy, McM stock and a good trigger and it will shoot better than most ever can.
5 I might be selling a Full SMith Ent Crazy Horse style rifle, everything GI except reciever......it won't be cheap.

Personally I find the fit of the synthetic stock better than the M305 original, not as thick in the hand.

As for the other questions. GGFB has answered them and I'm sure other will chime in.
 
I wish there was an aftermarket folding stock that dint cost as much to twice what the gun cost. Still waiting for the Choate, and got a long way to go.

Standard M305 can be accurate, but the accuracy quickly goes down the toilet as the barrel heats up and you get flyers. With the stock spring guide the gun rings like a tuning fork.... :oops:
Gun isnt "designed" for scope mounting either, forcing the shooter to use all sorts of cheekrest.

i've had my fill of folding stocks- they're nice novelties, but i'll stick to standard fixed for most situations- takes too long to unfold it and swing it into position- and it's not just the stock- you also don't get a proper cheekweld with a folder- i've got one on a 10/22, a winchester defender, and one on an m14( the one made by beretta that was designed for it, not the one that's a modified shotgun stock) the only advantage i can see is that they take up less room and look "cool"
 
I like my firearms to take up less space. With a scope anyways the M14 doesnt offer proper cheek weld with a standard stock. No big change there.
 
the only this that isnt stock on my M-305 is the scope and i get groups from 1" to 2.5 " at 125 yards.
useing 180 gr silver tips most of you cring when i say this but my M-305 likes them i get good accuracy anf havent any problem nuthing on the gun shows stress so the gun is working just fine useing 180s
talk to ya all later

Dark Int. has them more expensive than Marstar or Epps.
Is it because the 2 extra mags?

Thank you for the replies.

When I was thinking about acuracy, I meant the average, not the hummers.

Another thing: Getting the bbl to 18.5 in is a good idea? What is the original length?

the SA has a sort of mzl. brake. Do you guys keep the original "flash hider"?
