Leaning toward Saiga in .308. Here are some questions.
1. What are the cons of going with a .308 v. a .223 in these Saigas? (I'm wanting the .308 so I can use it for hunting large game if I so choose)
2. I think I understand what a converted .223 is....but what is a "converted" .308? Why would I want a converted model over a stock model? (does it have to be converted to accept the larger mags?)
3. If I get a "converted" .308, where the the best place to get one and how much are they?
4. Are there any issues puting a scope on it since I am left handed. (ie: since the usualy mounts are side mounts) I HAVE to have a scope on it.
PS: Will the price of .308 stay where it is now....in proportion to the .223? OR will one get more or less expensive (proportionate to the other) Make sense?
