How's everyone doing?
I'm Brant. I was thingking about getting involved in the civilian marksmanship program. As I was skimming throuh the approved rifles I found that the cheepest one to go with was a mosin nagant sniper variant for about $500. All the other vintage rifles were $1000+. I dont want to go that high, simply because if I did, I might as well just save up a little more and buy an M1A.
My question is, with mach grade ammunition, how accurate can these things get? I used to have a mosin (just iron sights) and it consistantly shot about a foot high and to the right at 100 yards. The grouping was about 6 inches wide. I just want to know if, with one of the approves scopes, is the rifle capable of 2-3 minutes of angle?
Thanks!
