I'm sure this has been posted before, but I have a few questions for you guys.  I currently have a 98C Pro (no ACT) with a J&J Ceramic 14" barrel, and cyclone feed system.  I'm thinking about upgrading to the A-5, but is there any advantage that the A-5 has over my current 98c with the mods?  Or would I best off just upgrading my 98 with a new stock and a Palmer stabilizer?  Thanks!

I would just stick with the the 98c at this point. The only real advantages the A-5 would have for you are the integrated VA, and the field strip pins.

Good to know - I already have a VA installed on my 98C as well.  Thanks!

I have two 98's, and ditched my A-5 at a loss to just be rid of it.

Draw your own conclusions.
If I attack, follow me

If I flee, kill me

If I die, avenge me
