I shot mine out at AGC at least 3 times this year.
Also and IMO, if you are buying one just for shooting, buy Chinese. They are the least collectible but they are best ones ever made if you ask me. Back in the 80's before the internet, I had an old numbers matching blade Chicom. It had almost zero finish left on it and rattled like a can of marbles but that thing was the best one I've ever owned. It's one of the only firearms I regret selling.
I own a Yugo M59/66A1 SKS rifle and really like it. I bought it about 4 years ago and have shot about 900 rounds though it. These Yugo models are built like a tank. As far as accuracy about the same as other models (not great). I did some mods to mine as you can see in the pic.
Nice! whats on the rear of the receiver cover?
Thank you for your compliment.That is a sight from a company called Tech sight. It can be adjusted for windage and elevation. Well manufactured and I think I payed $60.00 for it.
Did you have to modify the rifle to put that sight on? Most serious C&R collectors like to keep our firearms original and un-modified, because drilling holes, etc., makes the value of the firearm take a heavy hit.

An original VZ-58 may be a better rifle.
A cobbled together VZ-2008 is not a better rifle than the SKS.
The first VZ-2008 I ever picked up had the front sight installed a few degrees off center.
Century Arms is knocking them out with no regard for quality control.
I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who got one with ZERO issues.
