by all means..............just buy plenty of beer for targets. after plowing thru 200 rds of crap nato 147 grains i dropped my socom off at arringtonaccuracy.com. phil is a pilot and has landed here while looking over a plane he was buying. i fueled him up at our members discount and have since had my superduper supermatch from springfields custom shop, upgraded and polished to within a nano hair of its life, the socom done by him and my m-1 carbine both massaged like only a true craftsman can. phil is also an avid elk hunter like us.
socoms with just iron sights due to barrel length are really just 500 yd guns. very effective and insane accurate 500yd guns, but alas only 500 yds.
for 1000meter shoots you for sure want the standard length barrel. more stabilization of round due to length.
