saltydecimator 482 Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 Was looking at some saiga 06 on armslust for 10k, http://www.armslist.com/posts/5794295/northern-wi-rifles-for-sale--saiga-100-in-30-06 Which got me to think about converting a 54 vepr into one... Has it eva-bin-dun-bufour? Or any one though about it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WhiskeyMinion 300 Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 I'd just buy one of those new 30-06 VEPR's they've started importing Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gunfun 3,931 Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 308 win is closer pressure and case dimension. Plus What WM said. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sirex 34 Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 Sell the 54r Vepr and buy a 30-06 or 308 Vepr. I had 3 Veprs in 7.62x54r (not all at once). My 20" being the most accurate but never falling in love with any of them. The mags suck, the extractors are more prone to breakage, and surplus is no longer cheap and plentiful. Unless you have a ton of surplus the 308 is a better option IMHO. The 30-06 looks cool, but mags look to be short, although double stack. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
