So, I want to buy a 308 rifle. PTR91 any good?

PTR91 would be nice, if only because 20rd mags are $3 at midway and in-stock.

As I said earlier, if I wanted one I would pull the trigger now before prices go ape shit on these also.

Agreed its a good rifle and the prices haven't gone full tilt looney bin on them.......YET

Thanks for all of the replies. I will be picking up one soon.

Mine is fantastic!

I'm a fan-boy of the PTR-91, but I have shot both a lot.

I had (until the boating accident) many real HK91's and several PTRs (both early and late model). The real HK's felt and shot better than the PTR's every time.

i ordered a ptr91 receiver last tuesday to build one of my parts kits (have a cetme and a g3) i just hope it gets here before any crazy legislation. by the way whoever said while hunting where accuracy is paramount = m1a..... i took my deer this year with my 8x57 m76, i would do it again in a heart beat, m1a's arent magic. you put the same money and work into most semi auto rifles and they're capable of the same accuracy. i know a guy on gunco.net that builds .308x39 ak's that literally shoot dime sized groups...... my point is that a ptr91 would probably work great for hunting
