all i can find is the brief youtube clip
He charged a guy $150 to clean and shoot some reduced loads through a Japanese 6.5 1938 Arisaka.
I SAW A CLIP ALSO. CLAIMING TO BE THE FIRST 1000 YARD AK. I THINK I HAVE THAT BEAT BY ABOUT 5 YEARS OR SO. BEEN SHOOTING PRAIRE DOGS OUT TO 800 FOR A LONG TIME. HAVE HAD KILLS AT OVER A 1000 BUT ID BE HARD PRESSED TO DO IT CONSISTANTLY. LOOKS LIKE THE SCOPE WAS JUST MOUNTED ON THE DUST COVER. PERHAPS MR HADEN WILL COMENT HERE. WISH I HAD SEEN THE SHOW.
APEARS TO BE A SAGIA 308 WITH A BIG BARREL.
HE IS A STAND UP GUY AND I HAVE PURSHAED STUFF FROM HIM BEFORE IM NOT SAYING ANY THING BAD, HOWEVER HE IS NOT THE FIRST GUY TO SHOOT MODIFED AK,S AT 1000 YARDS.He charged a guy $150 to clean and shoot some reduced loads through a Japanese 6.5 1938 Arisaka.
TIME IS MONEY IN HIS LINE OF WORK. $150 DOSENT GO FAR THESE DAYS.
From what I've seen and heard.
It's a converted Saiga 308 with a match grade barrel blank (they said the brand but I forget it now, wasn't GM) and custom gas system.
The scope setup used the factory side rail and it looked like one of those K-var mounts which was modded to firm it up, when they test fired it in the shop some screw came loose on it and it sounded like they added a set screw or two.

KREGHOFF BARREL FROM THE CLIP.
I BUILT A .308X39 AK WITH ONE IN MID WEIGHT ITS VERY ACCURATE. HAS DONE ONE HOLE AT 100 YDS. IT WAS FROM A 30BR BENCHREST GUN I RECHAMBERED IT TO 308X39 WITH A CUSTOM LENGTH THROAT. THERE LIKELY THE BEST BARREL OUT THERE
ID LIKE TO SEE WILL,S GUN SHOOT A GROUP .
That's itKREGHOFF BARREL
Near the end of the show when the sniper guy shot it looked like a 5 shot group, it looked like all but one were touching each other, but nothing was mentioned what range it was done at.ID LIKE TO SEE WILL,S GUN SHOOT A GROUP

I missed the show but I think I can watch it on demand on m cable, when I saw the preview I though of you biggun, I didn't realize they used a .308 saiga, I was wondering if they were going to go with .308x39 of 6.5 grendle, forgot about .308. Kind of makes me want to get a saiga and have someone make a barrel for memaybe I'll get a reloading press today finally
