After one of the longest months of my life, my new Global Trades SSR-85C showed up today and I wasted no time in taking it to the range.
First impressions out of the container: A new rifle. Fit and finish were excellent, and I mean it. All of the numbers on the parts match. The parkerizing is top notch. The wood on the stock is some of the nicest blond wood I've ever seen, and the innards were clean but nicely oiled.
At the range, I decided I'd shoot a couple of groups at 30 yards to see what kind of sighting they had done at the factory. The shots were about 6" low, but the groups were excellent. I'll know more tomorrow when I attempt 50 and 100 yards benchrest for grins.
I also picked up a Saiga Sporter AK-action rifle today too and I shot it side by side with scope against the Global gun. Accuracy was about the same, although I'm interested in seeing whether or not the scope is worth it on the Saiga at longer range.
