SKS price alert

My Ruger Ranch in x39 does MOA out to 175 (all I have a range for) with Ch-MS, and better with 'good ammo' like Barnaul or S&B - still under $1/round. And my F-T does 2-4MOA with irons - I'm not that great a shot but not alot of 'good. ammo out there.
Hitting 8-1/2 x 11 @ 100 is good for SKS-irons for me since I can't 'see' the bull clearly at 100 ( "paint can" ).

Dang dude you're gettin 1.75" groups at 175 yards with Chinese surplus?
 
I only have 9-shots @ 175 with the x-39 this past year with a new scope and only 3-CH-MS on May-20. The 3-rd shot was a Hi-flier and the Barnaul did a bit worse that day. No 'ruler' on this pic (C1&2 = ca 1.75") but close enuf for the "Deer" :rolleyes: And back in Apr-24-24 3 with S&B for 2.3". And back on 10/28/2023 I had 3-out-of-5 (Green marked hits) within ca 1" with a $50 Bush 3-9x40 (Old scope b4 changed - Now a Viper 6.5-20x44 BDC ). Like I said b4, I'm not that great a shot but OK, I guess. BTW, MOA = 1.83" @ 175 😉

I was in the Abbotsford Cabelas today. They had about 8 Chinese SKS on the display racks. They were all definitely new, full of grease and had blade bayonets. Looked very good. Not French ticklers. $549. On sale.
 
I haven't looked for a few days, but at Tenda the F-Ts are 'sold out' @ $559.99 ! I bought mine in June-2024 for $449. AND the spam cans of Chinese ammo were UP to $259.99 ( from $209 in Dec) and ALSO Out of Stock now.
 
only thing liberals will do if they get that much letters is call the File 13 Shredder truck. I wish writing a politician didn't just get trashed or a Cut and Pasted response from a list. Canadien Politicians follow what they're party leader says so they don't get removed from they're party regardless of what they believe and say.

on SkS topic i miss 99.99 especially when i bought a crate of them :/ wish I didn't sell them during a finacial trouble period. I did get some might take a look but that price egh
