[ARCHIVED THREAD] - SKS Accuracy Question

Posted: 7/8/2014 4:24:27 PM EDT

I've heard from different sources (here and other gun boards) that the standard length SKS is more accurate than an AK47.
Does this hold true for the SKSs that came with a 16" barrel?

I'm thinking of dumping my O-PAP for an SKS-M.

my standard sks is fairly accurate, enough so that I have shot CMP with it and quieted the naysayers.

Seems to be pretty good the one I shot hit a good group.

I own 5 standard SKS, 2 SKS AK mag Sporters with 16" barrels and one 16" Paratrooper SKS.

I can say that the SKS Sporter with a 16" barrel and AK magazines is my most accurate one.
