As accurate as most well built AKs. Once you have one of those then your accuracy will depend on two things:
-Proper zeroing of the rifle at 25 meters and checking the accuracy at 100 meters per AK service manual
-Shooting Technic

Once you get those squared away you could hold 3MOA at 100 yrds and hit man size targets up to 300 yrds using iron sights. With quality scope you can increase your range to 500 yrds or more. You are also limited by the ballistics of 7.62X39 at longer ranges.

Accuracy is not the best quality of the AK but when it comes to reliability it will out last us and our grandsons.

Check this video out....no other rifle will be able stand this test.

Yeh i will post pics next week - im going to visit a friend in the buckeye state. No luck hunting this season

What you say makes sense....I don't hunt big games but I would think that a slug will give you the extra range you might need (up to 100 yards) and a good blood trail compared to a Buck 00 where anything beyond 50 yards its useless and does not leave a good blood trail either.

Haykakan how about showing us pictures of your Marlin.

I dont know anyone who uses buckshots. People around here including myself use sluggs for deer hunting..

If you are chasing a deer then you must be using at least 00 Buck shots which are very powerful (btw, great for home defense).

Here is a comparission:

Buck shots




Compared to target loads/small bird shots like quails.



This photo shows the number of pellets in different shells however it doesn't show te amount of gun powder used in each one.....the amount of power increases as the pellet sizes increase...ad in case of a auto creating the needed gas pressure for the bolt to be forced back enough to reload.

Haykakan buy some target loads and cycle them through you smi auto shotgun....if no jams you got yourself real good auto.
