Alright so, I'm planning on getting my final 'mandatory' weapon soon- that is, I've already purchased a high tier handgun for carry\shooting (SigTacops 1911 classic), an M&P15 with Eotech and magpul goodies and I just landed a Vepr 12.
So I've covered almost all of my bases except for a .308 rifle, which is really the king of general purpose use. Hunting, target shooting, basic survival stuff.
I'm looking at Remington for the rifle (their 700 series) and I don't think I can go wrong there..
But I have an odd hankering. I don't know what it is, but I gravitate towards chevron sights. Typically they are Russian in origin, though some American companies have incorporated it into their scopes (like ACOG).
So, I was going to try and put a PKS-07 or equivalent Rusky sight on the bolt action. I know, I know, this is totally weird and I'm sure this thread could be grounds for a crusade.
As objectively as possible, can anybody tell me the quality of Russian optics? What would the highest quality one be for a bolt action rifle? Anything on the PKS-07 in particular (personal experience, articles, etc)?
