There is a guy who rebarreled a FAL to 358 Winchester - just a 308 necked up to 358 cal. Works great, he uses it to hunt bear in Alaska w/ 5 rnd mag, or puts in a 20 rounder for fishing duty

My only concern w/ your M1A socom plan is the 180grn loads - isn't one of the M14 platform's weak points the op rod and other-than-nato-standard gas pressure curves? Of course, if you've run this by a socom 'smith and he is OK with it then it shouldn't be an issue....
