Gun and gear reviews More backland hunter testing

Have been doing more testing with the backland hunter. I’ve put about 810 rounds through it now without any significant failures. I swapped out the stock buffer tube and recoil spring for the black aces m4 adjustable stock and buffer tube. I also milled down the mag well to fit standard pmags. I did have some issues at first with the pmags. But I believe that is due to my user error. The mags were brand new and the rounds sat a bit tight with a lot force from the spring. The bolt would sometimes have a hard time closing fully due to the rounds being so snug (wasn’t an issue with the backland hunter stock magazines, maybe a weaker spring or more space for the rounds) however. After I let the pmags sit for a few days full of rounds the issues subsided. It cycles through pmags no problem now. I plan on putting another 500 rounds through it over the next week or so. I’ll post another update then. Overall though. So far so good.

Pretty solid. I’m shooting at a target about 100 yards down range. Monstrum lpvo is a very nice scope. Definitely more accurate than the my sks. However I’m not the most accurate rapid firing like this but trying to work on it and get better, this was mostly showing the backland can cycle rounds rapid fire. If you take your time methodically taking your shots it’s very accurate though. I want to do some testing at 300 yards. I also plan on uploading a YouTube video shooting another 300-500 rounds
