Bought a new Saiga AK-47. Hits well at 100yds using issued iron sights (8" circle). What kind of accuracy can I expect with added red dot or telescopic scope? Am I wasting my time considering a scope?

O.S.O.K.

:welcome: to the board! Well, you have to have good solid mount and decent trigger to make the most of a scope. You might consider a POSP which is basically made for the platform and has the mount built-in. A properly mounted scope can improve your accuracy quite a bit - depending on your iron sight skills... Saiga's can usually turn-in 2" groups with ammo that they like.

Here's a good rail mount: https://www.apexgunparts.com/product_info.php/cPath/141/products_id/3530

Hope that helps some.
