i've only had a few Russian guns and while they functioned fine they were kinda crudely made. this one, the build quality is outstanding. at least as far as you can tell from fit and finish. i've only got $350 net in it and the last anschutz m64 match i had, i got half that for the sights on it. the sights on this gun are better. i'd have to say this gun is way ahead of the anschutz. the receiver's massive. have not had it out of the stock yet to see what it's like inside.
the Russians seem to take their target shooting seriously. anybody mention ammo preferences in theirs?
