WCF,
As you said, you got what you paid for. I had to work over the triggers on my Baikal before I could even test it for grouping. They are not hard to improve if you are not afraid to open them up and start in stoning the surfaces. Mine felt like it had about 10 pound triggers on an 8 pound gun, after smoothing them up I had around 3.5 on the lower and 4 pounds on the upper barrel. Mine was way off with the recommended ammo.
I'm talking 1 foot of spread for two shots at 25 yards! after much trial and error and machining of the spacer, I got it shooting decently. The stock on mine was similar to yours, it is too long to make it comfortable to shoot when trying to reach the front trigger, the back one was not so bad. They are not badly made guns, they are somewhat poorly designed, though. Bob H.
