[QUOTE="knc1105, post: 833659, member: 23577"] Sounds like you got a fine stable. My shooting buddy has a 6.5 and 7.5 Swede and he's a Military gun nut that got me started with "Mosinitus" He qualified to shot long range at BOTW with his 6.5 Swede and open sights. He bought all of his stuff years ago before they were popular and bought them cheap, he was ahead of the curve. I've built a bunch of prototype peep sights and stuff for mine to shoot long, even but a Bob Jones optic in a Tech Sight rear peep on a Unissued Yugo SKS and won a Top Gun 3-gun match with it. For your 91/30 Mosins not the Finns have you seen the Smith Sights adjustable front sight? Best purchase you'll ever make. I had Josh build me some with .035" adjustable posts and they are awesome. Just got through building a peep sight on the elevator factory 91/30 sight that exactly matches the front hood so you see a peep in a peep if that makes sense, then top of post is POI.
