If I was in your position this is what I would do. Grab an AR around 1000 bucks and purchase an Alexander Arms 50 cal Beowulf upper for it. All together should be the price of an M1A, but you get the best of both worlds. Cheap shooting with the 5.56 upper, and lead freight trains speeding torwards your target with the 50.
