I've got 2 rifles in 7.62 X 54R Ron, & they don't look anything like that !, although I can see the pedigree if I look closely

Hi All , Keith took it to St Marys today to run the barrell in. I managed to get a few shots off myself and fell in love with it straight away. Its a pitty i dont have a spare 7gs to buy, more like 9gs with IOR scope. Cant wait for Keith to take it out to Silverdale and give it whirl. Its made by Izhmash SV98/Record in 7.62 x 54R , its also available in 308w or 338 lapua. Cheers Ron

G'day Ron,
Very interesting. I am reading a book ATM that mentions the Izsmash factory in relation to the AK-47. What composite is the stock....?
Regards
Sean
