Went to the range yesterday with some buddies. There was a lot of sighting in going on by elk hunters and all getting ready for the season.
I took an AK and my Vector 93. Never did shoot the AK, but did finally get the scope on the V93 *nearly* dialed in. Due to the number of people shooting, I decided I would simply use a dirt clod on the berm to use as my sighting in target rather than a paper target. It would have been painful to continue to walk up and down range all day until it was right. I suspect there may be a couple of inches off of center to firm up if I get the chance, but the rifle ran flawlessly. The dirt clods on the berm were exploding with regularity firing from prone using the light bipod.
Like I said, I haven't had time to get it completely dialed in on paper.
What I find odd is that my buddy's AK shot about the same number of rounds but was much more filthy to clean up as compared to the V93. The gas system took a lot longer and the encrustations were much more difficult to remove on the AK. I think it was less than 20 minutes until the V93 was clean.
