Standard Vepr .308 comes with a 5rd and a 10rd magazines in polymer. In the past, two companies made 30-rd metal mags, but neither produces them now. Just found out that SGM Tactical makes all-polymer 25-rounders and tried them out with my Vepr.
In this case, the stock rifle was updgraded with a hydraulic recoil buffer and TWS forend and rail top cover. The end result with 20″ barrel is a bit stout, so lightweight mags help.
Very nice! Looks like an excellent longer range multi purpose rifle. 🙂
My guess is that it’s good out to about 400m. I didn’t put a magnified optic because I didn’t want to lose sight picture every time the receiver moved relative to the stock. I’ve only shot it out to 100m so far, but hope to fix that next weekend.
Csspecs makes .308 mags for the VEPR.

Thanks! I have several of theirs and they work well. But all-steel mags are pretty heavy and I’d rather grab more ammo for the weight difference.
