You cant expect a production semi-automatic rifle to be anything like as accuate as agood bolt action. Itll get closer though if you modify the gas system and a few things, which is impressive.

1000 yards is pretty good for an M14, like you say, not many semi auto rifles that good, the bren gun was (as posted by bravo) it was a little too accurate for a fully auto weapon though (unless set to single round).

If he could convince the supplier that the barrett was not just for civilian use he would be able to obtain the explosive rounds, much more penetration at over 2000m. Might be able to take some rodents out whilst they're underground.
Beauty of the barrett is that absorbs a lot of the 0.5 recoil.

The semi automatic does: the barrel slides back and it has a huge muzzle brake: the bolt action M95 must be an absolute b*stard to shoot though...
(I wish as they were great fun) only .303's which were used for shooting competitions. We went to the ranges at Folkstone to fire anything decent and any RAF/Army bases we stayed on for field weekends.

How about a nice Barrett .50 cal? That would sort the mice out....
