I was considering a 1903, but then I remembered reading some where that the Garand is just as acurate, same powerful -06 round, is semi-auto, but because of the clip loading, the ones that can be equiped with scopes are rather akward because the scopes sit to one side. Considering this do you still suppose taking a 1903? Im asking because I have only hunted with AR, AK and Remington based platforms.
