Is anybody shooting one of the Chinese Norinco .22LR Mauser K98 copies?...... the Norinco designation for these are JW25A.
I have just seen over here in France that Norinco have just introduced a longer version of this gun.....from what I can see the extra 4 inches is all extra barrel which will give a longer sight radius, which in theory will improve accuracy over longer ranges.
When I get one I will be using it to shoot paper at 200 meters in Military Rifle and Military Trainer Rifle comps....thats about 220yards so maybe the longer gun will be the better buy for me.
If anybody is already shooting one I would like to hear your comments and opinions, thanks.
And why am I buying a .22LR gun to do this and not a full bore military rifle?........cost!.......I'll get a lot more shooting for a lot less expense but I'll still get the challenge and thrill of competing.....
....there is always too much month left at the end of the money!.....
Straight shootin',
