Vepr Hunter .308

Posted on March 3, 2012 by Oleg Volk

This rifle is positioned to compete with rifles like Remington 750 Woodmaster. The price, the weight and the other features are fairly similar. Vepr seems like a more robust design overall.

    What about the quality of barrels, аnd accuracy?

      Vepr is a 1.5MOA rifle, on part with the Remington. The extra 3/4 pound of weight comes mostly from the heavier barrel and bolt carrier (which in turn makes it more reliable in adverse conditions).

    And due to some archaic regulations, cant be used to harvest whitetail here in PA. Sure would be nice though.

      Brian.. if you could get a blocked 3 rd mag, you could use it, couldn’t you? Or are all semi-autos (outside of shotguns) still blocked? Actually.. if it uses the two-rod gas system you could just take the front rod out (or leave the rod out entirely) and then it’s a single shot. (I had a friend who used to drive game wardens nuts, by hunting with an SKS with no op-rod in it)

    Hmm. An AK variant that is not butt-ugly…

    What’s the price?

    Any chance for some good iron sights for it?
    Maybe move the rail forward?
