Sweet! Let us know if you have any sticky bolt issues rapid firing. There are a few simple solutions to that.

thanks guys,
wpoppert.. I can see you love them ;)

Now to just gota find a good place to shoot it.. sine i just bought a case of 7.62x54r for it...
anyone know of one that is FMJ / Light ball steel core friendly?

I'm guessing since I'm in the Tidewater Area, C2 Shooting Center is my best bet?

I am in tidewater as well. I just got a mosin Nagant at the Hampton Gun Show a couple weeks ago. I took it out to chickahominy park to the 100yd sighting in range they have. I went there instead of C2 since chickahominy is free and open to the public. Myne shot great and I didnt have any sticky bolt issues. I hope you love your Mosin Nagant as much as I love myne. :clap:
