    Are you saying higher up as in height of the scope, or set farther forward?

    I'm 5-9.

    In that case, there is almost no limit to how far forward you can position the scope as long as you're able to get proper eye relief.

    Thanks. If I had talent, I would have designed a super mount.

    The 1/2" square 'tube' stock fits perfectly between the ears of the RSB and pinned. The tube lays parallel to the bore with maybe .010" side to side play. Even if it sits to one side or the other, the scope adjustments will correct it.
    I'll take some better close-up pics tomorrow.

    NICE WORK

    I think thats really sweet. Wish I had the tools & material to try something like that.
    I need some pics of the groups your shooting @ 100 yds. Keep it going. Too bad the company that had the big heavy barrels sold out. Your rig could handle that I bet.

    I sold the first chassis and made another. It has the same Mosin, but I'm using a red dot instead of a scope.
    Sponge Bob camo paint this time.

    They are Czech UK-59 heavy machine gun barrels. Rethreaded to fit the Mosin.
    There are many articles on this barrel swap. Google it and read the accuracy reports. All are pretty damn good.




    I looked for the barrel a while back, and vendors are out of stock.
    That sucks.

    Thanks for the info. I was hoping there was a source for more PKM barrels. I wouldn't mind picking up another. A while basck there was a rumour that some one in the US was going to start making them.

    Bubba Redo

    I got bored again and made a few mods to the Mosin bubba'ed gun.

    I did away with the metal butt stock and fitted an AK butt stock. I also made a rail running the full length of the barrel and stopped it half way on the receiver. This makes for a rock solid platform for scope mounting. I also took the old Mosin front sight and made it adjustable for elevation.

    Added a rear sight behind the original rear sight base. This location allows me to use a scope without it being interfered by the r. sight. I added Weaver scope bases and Weaver double rings. I also added an AMD-65 front grip which will be used when shooting off hand. I am using the same bipod in pics above.

    All these mods made one Hell of a difference over the old version . I now have a true Frankenstein BUBBA'ed Mosin.

    Scope removed to use open sights.

    Are you ever gonna shoot it and show us a target or is this going to be the hot rod that never leaves the driveway because it's always getting tinkered with to improve it? You do cool looking work but um, uh, er, ah, like you know, does that thing shoot?
