I wonder how well the 16” barrel stabilizes the 7.62 round. I bought a Springfield SOCOM 16 a few years ago and it sucks. It sucks like it is the worst shooting rifle I own, even compared to a battle beaten, brought back from Vietnam SKS.
Appreciate the heads up on the SOCOM ... I have lusted for one ever since watching Hickok45 shooting one on Youtube. But I’m getting to the stage where a nice piston AR with laser and red dot and 45 degree offset iron sights is more than adequate for the social work I’m ever going to encounter. I’m even running lasers on all my ‘household’ handguns now.
The SOCOM always struck me as a gimmick that would likely be innacurate as hell. Has anyone had any experience with the SuperMatch? I know it’s a beast, weight-wise.
