Trent 0 Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 (edited) First off, thanks everyone for all the great info on this site! I finally got to a range where I could really let the Saiga 12 go (my local one doesn't allow shotguns). It was a load of fun, it appeared to cycle bird shot 100% on the low brass setting, but when on the high brass, I did have some problems my saiga doesn't seem to like Remington slugger rounds (they sometimes won't eject fully), which I think is the round's fault, the recoil felt about half of 00 12 pellet buckshot I had staggered with it in the mag. the only other problem I faced was when I tried to load a round in one of my mags, the round got stuck on the feed lip, which caused the end of the shell to become deformed rendering the shell unusable, I then removed the shell and racked it again to the same end. after that I couldn't replicate the problem. all in all I'm happy with the gun, I think most of my problems will subside with copious amounts of shooting. and I'm happy to see that there are 8 rounders available now, the 10's are great but I'm not a fan of the monopod effect they cause when prone.

volfandan 1 Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 Glad you got to get out and let her rip! I haven't had a chance to get to the range since getting mine back from my smith, but I'm really itching to shoot the heck out of it! Maybe this weekend! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
