After a bit over six months waiting for the MSP to not disqualify me, and several weeks of not being able to get to the range, I finally got up to Hap Baker today to try out my new PTR-91.
After months of reading about it, I was ready for 12 gauge slug recoil, but honestly it was pretty soft shooting off of sand bags. It only kicked a little harder than my AR15, though the recoil may be more noticeable off hand.
It seems mechanically very accurate, but the sights need adjustment, as it was shooting 5" low at 25 yards. I have snap ring pliers that work perfectly as a drum sight adjustment tool. When I got home, I found out that the rear sight was bottemed (topped?) out. There's plenty of adjustment room to zero it out.
All in all I'm very excited about my 2nd to last screw O'Malley purchase.
