I have 4 M-14s, use them for hunting deer and I love them. Mine are quite acurate with the rack grades doing 1.5 to 2 MOA groups and my green meanie (my DMR clone) will do 1/2" on a good day and 3/4" MOA groups easy. Are they heavy? I guess when you compare them to a typical hunting rifle they are but you just need to get stronger is all. Hey, I was a machine gunner in my day so even the weight of my DMR clone is still lighter than my old '60E3 and I humped that pig for many many miles so really it's all in what you're used to. I have no complaints about using one.
