We have carried out a simulation of QCD using the hybrid-molecular-dynamics algorithm with two flavors of staggered quarks. The spectrum was calculated for 6/{ital g}{sup 2}=5.6 and dynamical quark masses {ital am}{sub {ital q}}=0.025 and 0.01. Lattice sizes of 12{sup 4}, 12{sup 3}{times}24, and 16{sup 4} were used to generate the gauge configurations. Hadron propagators were calculated with both staggered and Wilson quarks on doubled or quadrupled lattices. Finite-size effects are visible on the smaller lattices. Some improvement in the {rho}-to-nucleon mass ratio and chiral symmetry is seen as compared to previous calculations, but, as in most lattice calculations, the proton-to-{rho} mass ratio remains larger than in the real world and the proton-{Delta} splitting is too small.
