How does the CZ 858-2 compare to the SKS and Ruger Mini 30 from both an accuracy and mainenance perspective? Is there actually a solid way to mount optics to the CZ?
I'm not really into the SKS but at about $200 - $250 it seems like good bang for the buck.
On the other hand a Ruger Mini 30 retails for around $900 and although I prefer them to the SKS this seems a bit much to pay for a rifle that will primarilly be used to burn through a bunch of cheap surplus ammo.
The CZ at around $650 - $750 seems like it might be a nice middle ground.
