bkbville 0 Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 When I picked up my .308 Saiga I didn't hesitate - I wanted the longer 22" barrel. Now I'm looking to add a .223 Saiga to the fold, but I'm less clear on what barrel length. Anyone with pro's & con's for 16 vs 21? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
saigafreake 27 Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 A lot depends on what ammo you are using some 223 and 5.56 ammo needs a longer barrel to perform correctly tumble expansion etc. i had a 21 in barrel and liked it was pretty accurate with a nice sight radius but decided to replace it with a 16 for a more standard looking akm have yet to convert it waiting on a lot of parts. so i wont notice an accuracy until i shoot it converted.
