scout vs sporter mosin
well as i originally started on the scout system, it was easy to modify with no permanent mods to rifle, it was useful and you could hit out, i feel to 200-300 accurately.
the VS
SCOUT
PRO
-scope is easy to use with both eyes open
-quicker target acquisition
-less modification needed
-stable scope platform, id recommend the brass stacker so you still can use irons, but will need a check riser on stock.
CONS
-limited amount of scopes for LER
-scopes are not usually dependable
-low magnification
-usually scout replaces the rear sight area unless brass stacker
-issues finding cases to fit the scout scoped rifles
-becomes front heavy
scout, suited best for hunting or quick target shooting
SPORTER
PRO
-common scopes work
-solid scope mount
-easy for accuracy increase
-fits many bags/cases easy
-weight is placed near center which balances the rifle out
CON
-limited rail systems
-big scope means big case needed
-must alter the rifle to fit mount and usualy a new bolt(RSI bolt + a receiver mount is good idea)
-suited best for distance, long range hunting (depending on scope), target shooting
