What if Your Mosin Nagant was More Accurate?
Tweaking your Mosin Nagant rifle for tighter groups is not necessarily the easiest weekend project.
However, if you are the motivated type, you can finally take that step past the casual shooter and into the realm of the customized shooting enthusiast. Since I am almost obsessive about getting good groups at the range, my friends wondered why in the world I would buy a beat up old Mosin. I told them I wanted the challenge of taking an Eastern Block bolt gun and outshooting them and their fancy ARs at the range. It might surprise you that with a little ingenuity, it is possible to turn that old Soviet rifle into a finely tuned precision target-blasting machine—sort of.
A trigger job can accomplish a great deal. The included trigger on most Mosin Nagants is long, heavy, gritty, and creepy. None of these attributes makes for a very accurate rifle. I imagine the thinking of the designers was to get as many guns in the hands of peasants as they could for the least amount of rubles as possible.
To help make your peasant gun fit for a Tsar, a trigger job is a good place to start.
