      I have a 7.62x39... had it on the range today... the wife was getting very close to the 300 yard targets and was nailing the 200-250 yd targets left and right with wolf hp ammo..

      to use pre-ban mags... you go to dinzag arms and follow the instructions and buy the parts and you is in business...

        I have one that I converted and love it. I highly recommend doing the FCG conversions.
        They will take an AK mag is a small bit of work, Tab grinding and a bullet guide added.(Danzig arms)

        With wolf ammo I can get 2" groups at 126 yards, Lake city seems more like 1 1/2" same distance. A guy on Saiga 12 forum posted pics on 1/2" 5 shot groups using hand loads @100 yards.

          Don't know about the .223 version, but my 7.62 version is outstanding!

          With iron sights, hitting 200 yds regularly, and with my scope, consistent at 300+ yds (bad eyes, I NEED that scope!)


          Cheers!
