16" vs. 22" ?!


Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

 

I've got a stock .308 22" barrel and was wondering how it compares in terms of muzzle blast/recoil/accuracy with it's 16" brother. I'm thinking of getting another Saiga .308(I like having 2 rifles) and just not sure whether I should get another 22" (I love shooting this one) or differentiate and get the 16"...I've owned a 16" Fal and it was LOUD and a bit difficult to handle, but it was light and handy.

I've got the 16" and had a 22". The carbine is louder and shoots about the same in terms of accuracy - but the sight radius is shorter of course.

 

I do not find the carbine hard to handle or too loud either. It is very handy and fun to shoot.

 

I would get a carbine if I were you - then you have both.
