  1. Well our Saigas came back from RAA today....the welds on the muzzle device look like crap. I'll probably polish them up and refinish the guns.

    Now the tinkering will commence!

    What modifications do you think are needed to make the Saiga competitive?

  2. There is a decent on-line ballistic calculator at

    http://www.handloads.com/calc/

    Plug in the muzzle velocity, bullet weight, zero-distance, etc and it will tell you what your hold-overs are for various distances.

    I shoot 175g Black Hills through a Rem PSS (actually two - I have the "regular" PSS with the 1:12 twist 26" barrel, and another one with the 1:11 5R 24" barrel). If you need a good velocity figure, let me know I can dig out mine when I get home. I have the BCs and everything else for that load as well.

    Bottom line, though, as others have said.... it's not going to be a lot. I have a 200yd zero on mine, and my 168gr drop-card says I'll be 1.8" high at 100 yards. I think with a 100yard zero, I'dshould be about 3" low at 200,

    Thanks for the calculator, now only if I had time to chrono a few rounds. ;) I will be shooting the 175g Black Hills so I think the drop will be greater than the 168g at 200. I only have access to a 100yd range the day before the match. I am now thinking about setting my zero at 2" high at 100yd.

    I really appreciate the replies,

  3. Help a newby MOR shooter out!

    I am shooting at a local 3 gun match next Sunday and will be borrowing a Remmy 700 PSS in .308 with a 10X Super Sniper using 175grn Black Hills ammo for the MOR side match. MOR is new to me so forgive me if this is a stupid question. The rifle is zeroed at 100yrds and I will confirm this the day before the match. My question is how much will I need to change my point of aim on the 10 steel targets ranging from 100 to 200 yrds? Should I change my zero at a 100 yds to an inch high? Any other advice would be greatly appreciated. I know this is not a very challenging stage compared to what the guys out west shoot, but I am looking forward to it. :D

    TIA,

  4. I have experienced the same problems. Left the mags loaded with 10 rounds for 3 months, cut the spring, tried different springs, all the suggested above, the only thing that changed was that the 1st few rounds were easier to load. The mags will hold 10 rounds, the problem is that the last round has so much presure on it that it causes drag between the top round and the bottom of the slide. :angry: This can cause a malfunction and make it hard to seat the mag (you got to slap her on the ass real hard :wub: ). Flexmoney has got it right, the G21 restricted mags are the worst, my G17 restricted mags work fine. I too would like to know if any one has been able to get the G21 10 round magazine to function correctly. I have a gen 2 mag that I am will to grind on if anyone has a suggestion.

    TIA

  5. OK, I shot a local 3 gun match last weekend at Thurmont, MD MPSA and I am hooked. I used my m4gery and did not shoot it as well as I had hoped (the brain to trigger interface was to blame). I now want, no, need to build a Limited rifle. I have a post ban Bushmaster lower assembly with a Bushmaster trigger. I need to buy/build an upper. I new to 3 gun so I will ask some basic questions, please feel free to elaborate.

    1. Barrel length?

    2. Barrel material?

    3. Hand guard type?

    4. Upper receiver type?

    5. Sites?

    I am on a budget so if there are areas that are more important to spend money on than others I will spend accordingly. If there are complete uppers available that will do the job I will consider that as well. Any other tips for a 3gun FNG I would appreciate.

    Thanks,

    JT
