July 5th 1943, Operation Citadel begins! Germans are attacking, Soviets are defending!
@Vintage Rifles Shooters Club takes on the Battle of Kursk - German Sniper is using High Turret Sniper rifle and Soviet counter sniper is with Mosin PU Sniper rifle.
13 targets spread out on the field at the different distances all the way to 700 Yards!
One Shot One Kill!
Can I change the history with this High Turret Sniper Rifle?! ;)

I hope you enjoy this video!

 
Rob, thanks for posting. I have your other videos in a post below this one. I’ll add this video to that post. Great work, you make that shooting look easy.
 
Thank you for watching guys. Rifle simply is fantastic. I'm just a trigger puller. ;)
But seriously, rifle shoots below 1 MOA with factory ammo...this is SB 196gr FMJ...maybe during the winter time I will have enough time to tweak the load for it and see what it really can do...

@Hercules - this is rifle purchased from "For Sale" section here, I know detailed pictures are posted somewhere here, I just can't find that thread...:(
 
Thank you guys! I hope to put many more those old rifles up to the task. On average, I'm honestly blown away because of what those rifles can do...we like to think that we have greatest and latest technology and etc, but more I shoot with old hardware, more my jaw keeps drooping down...:D
 
Rob, good video and I have long said it is amazing how far we have not come. We have heavier, more complex and only slightly more accurate on average. I finally found my M24r group, only one group shot as I was getting it zeroed with Fed. GMM. It was about 13/16ths of an inch, 5 shots at 100yds. Barrel is not broken in with 10 or 15 rounds so it may do better but many WW2 snipers will do as well with match ammo. I would rather tote some of the WW2 snipers than some used today. I always hated weight.

Keep those videos coming. I would like to have seen both shot at each range, one after the other and count the number of hits, maybe even calculate average distance from point of aim.
