In the next few months i would very much like to purchase a Saiga rifle. I like the reliability and the accuracy is acceptable. I intend to buy a stock one but eventually i might trick it out. The problem is, i'm having a bit of difficulty deciding what exact configuration to get. I'm going to be using it mostly just for fun (Not hunting), but would also like something to help hold the zombie hoards at bay if need be. I'm thinking that the .223 looks nice, but i was wondering what exactly the difference in velocity and or handling would be in the different barrel lengths. Also is .308 a better caliber to have in a SHTF type situation, or should the .223 be sufficient? I think i'd like to put a scope on it (eventually) and have noticed that there are some nice ones... also how much are .223 and .308 ammo cost wise? I'm not really interested in 7.62X39, but if theres a good reason to get one in this configuration than any other perhaps i will consider it. Thanks in advance.
