IIRC the AK was $819

My Armalite AR15A4 carbine would only do 3-4 MOA, no matter what I fed it in the way of factory ammo, including Federal Match ammo. It had a 16" chrome lined barrel. I swapped it for one of their 20" bull barrels and a free float handguard, and it turned into a sub-MOA shooter.

A CMMG upper in .300 Blackout would likewise only do 3-4 inches with 220 gr factory ammo. It would do about half that much with handloads, and possibly even better with supersonic loads, but I have just begun testing them.

Here is the scope mount I am using:
