This is the ole low number high number discussion. The rifle in question is at Ron Peterson's in Albuquerque, NM. I have looked at and handled the rifle and it is a nice example. If I could afford it, would I shoot it? Probably not. Would I buy it and change out the action so I could use it? No. I would shoot it as is before doing that.
I figure the statement is a legal CYA one. I also note that it doesn't say don't shoot it, just don't use "modern" "high pressure" ammunition.

Just my .02 and I have no issue with shooting low number Springfields nor using them for the occasional hunt. Yes I wear good shooting glasses, but then I wear them with all guns.
