I have a 24/47 that I purchased for hunting, and have done the following:

1) 22 lb Wolff Spring
2) DEEP CLEANING of the bolt (BAKE it.... it will fully remove the cosmoline that it was holding, even a little bit in the works may keep the firing pin from fully engageing)
3) Purchased a "tallsight" because these rifles were sighted in at just over 200 Meters. (They shoot 12 - 20 inches high at 100 yards)

The tallsight needed to be filed down to the distance that you prefer.

After some good and bad days with the 50's yugo ammo, I switched completely and sighted the rifle to the Romanian 8MM

Many milsurplus fans that shoot the 50's ammo just shoot the bullet again.
(I quickly tired of that..... I have also heard of these bullets going off a few seconds later. A big problem if you have just ejected it)


Enjoy your rifle..... very fun to shoot
