Suitable scope for a mosin-nagant? Let's say one just bought a new MN and wanted to "trick" or "pimp" out the old russian sniper, but didn't want to do what the up tight puritans do and install an original scope/mount... no, this will be different. Any advice? I want to be able to shoot said rifle to it's full potential. Here's the catch: something around $150. I know my choices are limited, but I want the best scope possible. Maybe something like a 3x9-40? Help a GIMer out!

Re: Suitable scope for a mosin-nagant? Me too. The camo stock is out of stock. You can get a picitinny rail mount here for your scope too. Let me know if you find a good scope. I want to do the same with mine!

Re: Suitable scope for a mosin-nagant? Was gonna go for the black stock and I'm seriously looking at this right now... http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/52348-65635-1514.html What do you think?

Re: Suitable scope for a mosin-nagant? I have a similar one to that in silver, still in the box.

Re: Suitable scope for a mosin-nagant? Have you considered buying one already bubba'd? It might be cheaper.

700-1000 yds ? it would take more than just slapping on a scope to reach it's full potential

if/when you buy this rifle take it to a gunsmith and ask him for a scope, $150 tops if the gunsmith has never handled one of these before ask him some questions about sighting it for 1000 yds he might know of a range/place where you both can go to do this he gets to sight in a sniper rifle and you may get a few pointers about long-range shooting have you thought about getting a solid case for this rifle ?
