Polytech M14/S Customized 308 Win., about $1900 It was Federal Gold Medal match, Magtech 150-grain ball from Brazil, and mixed lot of recovered ammunition purchased in bulk with headstamps from Israel, Italy, Belgium, and Canada, which we used unsorted. We tested with three types of ball ammunition, the only type recommended in these firearms. We used both the scope and iron sights to test that rifle so you could see what one of these rifles can do, and used the irons on the other two. The M14/S was fitted with a Burris 2-8X scope in an S&K mount, but the iron sights were still usable with the scope attached.
In this test we look at three wood-stocked versions, a remanufactured Chinese-actioned Polytech M14/S that was converted several years ago by Fulton Armory into a mostly GI-part rifle (about $1900), a new Fulton Armory M14 ($2755), and an M1A from Springfield Armory ($1739).

In the world of 308 auto-loading rifles, the M14 and its look-alikes reign just about supreme.
