With my vision I can't hit the side of a barn door with open sights LOL!
The SKS sights are pretty bulky to me too so I put on the Williams Firesights.
With a 4power scope tho on the CZ858 I find the 7.62x39 round to be pretty accurate out to 200yards....surprised a few guys at the with it that they had to ask what I was shootin!

With lots of practice iron sights are more than capable of sub-MOA accuracy. I'm not debating this or your shooting skill. I'm just saying, even if you remove any and all human errors, I've yet to see a cooey that is sub-MOA to 75 yards. If yours is you better never sell it because it's one in a million.

Sounds like an easy $1000 if you really do have a sub-MOA cooey. You'd be stupid not to take him up on that; unless, of course, you don't have a sub-MOA cooey.

I hear they shoot elephants with the round in some parts of africa. Put the round where it needs to be and at reasonable range and you eat venison. I have been known to split a 22 bullet on an axe blade putting holes in cans on either side. Shoot a ruger 10/22 long enough and I agree it gets easier to put the bullet where you want it
