First time firing my AK at 100 yards.

[U.S. Patriot]

Sounds like fun. I could bring a converted Saiga, milled Pole and a pair of SKSs. One of the SKSs has a set of TechSights and it would be interesting to see how they compare.

That would be great if you came Tim!

Maybe we should make an official thread once we get a date set? Call it a 7.62x39 shoot, or something along that line.

I think that's a great idea. Maybe a nice dovetail off the SKS shoot .38special has each year. You've done a good job organizing meet / greet / shoots before...wanna take the lead on this one?

Sure, I have no problem doing so. I'll post a feller thread, and see how it goes. We'll at least have the few of us. I'm thinking maybe the 9th or 16th of July. Since you have to go to Japan for buisness, and because of the 4th. Plus it will give members time to plan. It will probably be hot, but at least the lanes are covered, and there are indoor air conditioned bathrooms. Plus they sale 7.62 for a pretty reasonable price just in case.

Sounds great! Thanks for doing it, and looking forward to making some noise!

No problem bro, I look forward to it, as I know it will be a good time.

Why does everyone have to live south of Indianapolis??? Argh!

I know the feeling. A lot of stuff happens up North, and it's hard for me to make it.

I wish this was closer to Evansville, I have a ridiculously accurate AK that I love to show off.

 

[Larryjr]

Nice. I haven't had the privilege of shooting an AK but I do have an SKS that is very accurate from 100 yards.

 

[japartridge]

Good shooting! I think we need to have an SKS vs. AK accuracy contest. Group event anyone? I've got one of each and some ammo to burn...

Hmmm, I've got an SKS, and I'm going to get a CZ58 ordered in next week.....

I didn't see this earlier. I would be in if I can make it. Again, don't have an AK but would love to shoot one.

 

[PTA grad]

Ive got a russian sks and a IoI AK47, the sks is pretty good maybe a 12" spread at 100yrds the AK has plastic trim alot lighter and accurate more like a 6-10" spread at a 100yrds but most group within the center of 6". It would be fun to do a group shoot with the two.

 

[Liberty's Teeth]

I didn't know they made barn sized paper targets!

J/k, I have an AK myself.

 

[jordyman]

beautiful, did everything it needed to

My brother and I compete with one another with an Arsenal Saiga quite often at 100 yards. We have 5 shot group competitions and so far he holds the record with a group just under 2.25 inches at 100 yards.

Most 10 shot groups open up to 3.5 to 4.5 inches, depending on the ammo but with golden bear ammo (which my Saiga loves) and slow steady firing, sub 3 inch groups aren't too difficult.

Iron sights?

 

[indymike]

Iron sights?

Unfortunately, no. Nikon Prostaff 3-9x40 on a UTG mount using a bipod. Kinda feels like cheating but a scoped AK is the most fun of any scoped gun I've ever shot. That high variance relative to a well tuned AR or bolt gun makes an AK bullseye all the more exciting

Can I bring my 7.62x39 AR?

Sure, there is an official thread up in the events section.
