cruddymutt 1 Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Just took my converted 308 out for some testing and I am not liking the PSL stock and scope combo I have. The PSL stock is very short. I have the UTG side mount scope rail and a centerpoint 4-16x40 scope. If I move the scope foward it is still a little too far back for proper eye relief. It makes for an uncomfortable shooting position. I have the same scope and mount on my 223 but I have a saw grip and tapco T6 stock on that one and its very comfortable. Im not sure if I should just ditch the stock and go saw grip and T6 stock on the 308 or should I ditch the scope and get another one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paulyski 2,227 Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 (edited) Why not try the POSP scope that comes on PSLs? It would line up just like on PSLs, since PSLs are built on AK receivers. EDIT: or go to Dinzag Arms's website, Battleriffle G-3 sells through him. He makes a real Dragunov stock that will fit the .308. You could ask him to make it a touch longer for you, or add a recoil pad for overall length.

David Mark 2,452 Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 +1 - What Paulski said. I'm trying to make up my mind right now between a PSL or converting a .308. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cruddymutt 1 Posted January 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 I think I have found it is the scope mount I am using. The Belarus? looks like it mounts further foward on the side rail than my UTG mount does which would move the scope foward which would make for a pleasent shooting position. That and a recoil pad as a spacer and Ill be in business, I think. Thanks guys. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
psignore00 0 Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Every scope mount should mount as far forward on the side scope rail as any other mount. That's what allows them to lock in place. Now the relationship of the weaver rail compared to the mounting bracket could be different (the connecting arm could be angled forward as opposed to straight up), but if you're going to buy a new mount because you think it mounts farther forward on the side rail i wouldn't waste your money.

cruddymutt 1 Posted January 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 What you said is what I meant. The rail looks to be more forward than mine, not the mount base. I ended up ordering a cantilever dual ring mount. Looks like it will allow my scope to go further forward. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
