Hey SH,
I recently bought a mosin 91/30 from budsguns.
I cleaned the heck out of it, top to bottom, took it all the way apart and reassembled it so that I'd know my way around it and would not miss any of the gunk they use to store it.
I took it to the range with a can of silver tip surplus ammo.
I can see the draw of it and why so many people love it. But mine needs some help.
Problem #1 is that it shoots WAY off. Low and to the right by 2-3 feet at 100 yards. I tried moving the front sight, but it's frozen, and I don't want to bend or break the front sight pin.
I bought the following things to try and get around it.

So far so good. I didn't need the iron sites anyway....
Now my issue is that my own head moves around, and this LER scope's crosshairs move with it.
Any suggestions on a cheek rest for this rifle, or ways to shoot to NOT move my head all around? I'm a tall guy with long arms, and the stock is small for me as it is.
Thanks for the feedback, any and all is appreciated.
