Does anybody else hunt with Surplus rifles?
Just curious but does anybody besides me hunt with old Mil. surplus rifles? I personally shoot aM44 Mosin Nagantthats over 60 yrs old and only cost $100. but I wouldnt trade it for anything less than a Barret .50 cal. simply becauseI know exactly where that bullets gonna go when I aim it and no matter howmuch abuse it takes the sights are always dead on. plus the 7.62x54r caliberis right up in between the .308 and .30-06. and Im sure if your rifle got dropped you would check for scratches and nicks and such. when mine falls and new scratches arrive I dont freak out. plus around here where the flattest part might be a 200 yard pasture Iron sights beat scopes any day. so there is no wondering if the sights are still on or not. the only complaint I have is the straight bolt.
