Running match ammo how accurate is the svdm?
1-2 MOA
Oof
.308s are better because the ammo is better
7.62x54r suffers in that regard
Than 7.62r?
Oh
For what the SVD is used for it's decent enough
^
Fair enough
it's actually a fairly light rifle as well
surprising when you first handle one
Is there a chance if parts kits once they adopt the 308?
Of*
hahahahahahahahaha
no
Oh
Saying they're sniper rifles might be giving it a little too much credit
Yee
yea, but the soviets employed snipers like we use DMRs
Yeah
Didnt Flandre build one?
Squad level right?
Yee
Certainly not two man spotter-sniper groups
I always like the concept behind the PSO1
squad level, tasked with removing machine gunners
or flanking elements
Ranging seems like a very quick process
Isn't it analogous to the M21?
Or was the m21 never implemented at a squad level?
ehhh
ranging is quick like a tank sight
the M21s initially used Leatherwood scope
which had a ballistic cam that set the range
after you "boxed" your target with the reticle
they were more or less phased out after vietnam
hence the scramble in afghanistan with the EBR chassis
