Stretching the Legs of an SKS Beyond 300 Yards (VIDEOS)

By Chris Eger

The popular trope about Sergei Simonov’s 7.62x39mm SKS rifle is that it is totally inaccurate. The truth is a little different.
To respond to the rock throwing at the humble semi-auto carbine, Robski with AK Operators Union runs a Norinco model SKS in the above video out at a steel plate a good ways downrange, stressing he is there just to have fun with the rifle.
For a longer stretch, the below video shows the Precision Rifle Network zero a Soviet SKS-45 and make attempts out to 500, then 600 yards, which is about the max performance from the ammo before it goes subsonic. Does it hit? Da.
