One wouldn't even need a beam, you could just tie them to a long enough string. Would one be able to see bullet impacts in an adequately prepared patch of ground? Maybe some sandy area raked flat similar to the sad pit in long jump? You'd still need to count hits somehow, but if you find enough people to help out with the shootingyou could just have them walk across the target area in a line and count. Not as entertaining as the sex dolls, though . . . Or maybe a test like that was the reason behind the gur from the maths problem buying an insane amount of melons.

The Cobalt Kinetics competition AR's had a feature almost like that '1 round left warning' feature, on an empty mag they would lock open, auto drop the mag, and when a loaded mag was inserted, auto drop the bolt and chamber a round. Re: NDM-86's, the Chinese actually improved upon the SVD in regards to the barrels twist rates, the Soviets severely limited theirs by insisting on a really weird twist rate that would allow them to use explosive observation ammo, which meant their dedicated sniper ammo sucked, they only fixed that twist rate issue in 2016, and its still not in service with anyone. The NDM's fixed that as a specific part of their design and are mechanically more accurate. Always funny when people go "hurr durr NDM ain't an SVD", no, its better than one.

In fact, Soviet production SVD had that barrel twist rate (1 to 12.6) just for the one cartridge - 7H1 (7N1 in English). It has a very light ball and was made specifically for the SVD. But, with that twist rate SVD could not normally fire any different type of ammo (tracer, AP and API). And that "problem" was "decided" in the middle 90s, with the steeper (1 to 9.4) twist rate. And those SVDs can normally shoot with every special cartridge (tracer, AP and API), but they shoot really bad with the old and light 7H1. That problem was decided in the early 00s with the adoption of the 7H14 cartridge. Today Russian military SVDs are OK. But they OK only with that expensive 7H14 cartridge.

Load the mag with 3 tracer at the bottom of the mag which acts as a warning your about to run dry and at the top of the mag the 1st 2 rounds are ball to get rounds down at the target, then 3 tracer for quick target indication, ( watch my tracer).

for the MAS 36 zeroing, if remember the rifles were shipped with a "N" leaf, which has the hole in the center. it's then the job of the unit armourer to install the correct rear sight leaf after the rifle had done a 5 shot group on a paper target at 200m, the mean point of the group is then taken to determine which of the 25 leafs is needed to zero the rifle, and the rifle then shoot a confirmation grouping to check the new zero but if the rifle was never put in the field, or for some reason the rear sight was damaged and replaced, or someone fidgeted with the forend of the rifle, then a zeroing session is in order

For testing volley fire, I think an easy and safe way to do it might be to go to a large lake (where this would be allowed) on a day without much wind. You could drop buoys at set intervals to gauge distances and have a drone or two overhead record splashes. I know bullets can skip, but if the lake is big enough and the angle is steep enough, it would probably work. Just an idea and it seems like it would be cool to try

As an addendum to my comment about the Coast Guard's .499 LW.... A number of "reduced range" bullets for the .50 BMG have been developed since then. Most of them have odd shapes like scalloped areas on the nose or small fins on the tail to slow the rotation of the bullet to make it unstable after a certain range and/or increase drag enough to drastically reduce its range. The rounds retain essentially full power and decent accuracy up to several hundred meters, but won't fly for miles like the standard rounds.

A few years ago, I restored my grandfather's M1903A3 Springfield that he had sporterized when he was younger. I wasn't trying to increase its value or anything, we were just talking about it one day, and he told me he had used it in competition when he was in the Army Reserve in the '50s, then bought it for himself and converted it into a deer rifle when he got out. Then he sighed and said something like, "I wish I hadn't done that now." So I bought a new "C" stock set from the CMP, tracked down the rest of the bands and screws and bits and bobs from around the net, and my dad and I spent an afternoon putting it back together. I'm sure it's nowhere near properly bedded or anything; we're not gunsmiths and we weren't trying to be, we just wanted it to look right. Had to smuggle it into the nursing home to show it to Gramp, which is not the easiest thing to do with a four-foot-long rifle, but it was worth it just to hear him say "I never thought I'd see that again."

And even then, the refinished parts didn't come out quite the same as the original finish, and I made a HUGE mess with potassium permanganate trying to match the repro handguard to the original production replacement stock. And that's before all the trouble with out of spec chambers and bolt heads.

To assess hits of volley fire at distance - you can't use a simple 6' wall of paper or cloth unless you use multiple such walls (besides, vertical targets are questionable at distance where the bullets are dropping almost vertically). You could use a horizontal target (as you mentioned), but paper is impractical at that - this is where cloth might be useful (basically a big sail - maybe a surplus?). I've seen US Army demonstrations in which the targets were basic man-shapes distributed in the manner of infantry in loose formation. That brings up the question of what you are trying to test - volley fire as practiced from the 1700s through the Boer War or beaten zones as practiced starting in WWI through now.

The main issue with Volley fire using volley sights as discovered during WW1 is there are other things that can give same or even more effect for the effort. For example if the spotting plane saw that column of German Infantry marching 2500yds from your lines if you put a couple of Vickers Guns and a some small bombs on it rather than radio for a Volley attack it could go over and strafe them far more quickly and effectively. Or if an infantry unit gets word of this German Column in the open 2500yds away a medium Mortar would be far more effective for the task hence the introduction of Mortar platoons organic to an infantry unit.

The key effect in sustained volley fire is area denial. Actual casualties are just a bonus. While the plane may get there faster and cause more actual damage, it will still be insignificant with a Great War patrol plane. That attack will be also quite short. It may delay the enemy for a a minute but not much more. The rifle fire can be sustained for prolonged periods of time. Mortar, on the other hand, is definitely the weapon for this role.

Karl, one might argue that your NDM-86 has the advantage over "real" SVDs precisely because it's in .308. It's a rimless cartridge, which tends to be more reliable, and .308 ammunition is typically higher quality, which gives you a better chance of producing that mythical accuracy.

On the whole peaty/smoky scotch thing: There are lots of types of smoky flavor. Personally I'm not a fan of the peaty smoked whiskys of Scotland, and much prefer something like Glenmorangie or Macallan. I do like milder smoky ones like Highland Park more than something like Laphroaig (in my mouth it tastes nice, but the aftertaste is just an instant flashback to a well used ashtray in a bus company lounge in the early 90s...), but on the other hand I'm a humongous fan of heavily smoked beer from Bamberg etc., proper rauchbier, where the malts are usually smoked with beech wood. I think the reason why Karl likes the smoky mezcal is because it's a wood smoke, not a peat smoke taste. I'm betting I'd also like a heavily smoked whisky a lot better if it was wood smoked rather than peat smoked. Sadly, I've yet to find one. If anyone has tips for me, give me a shout!

Okay just me? People keep saying they want a round counter. I think instead: Clear lancer mag Clear poly power (lightweight!) Now you can see all but a few rounds! Add clear aluminum to the mix...

The thought is to not need to break aim/firing for ammo check, like a gas gauge on your car. You dont have to stop, get out, and crawl under a clear gas tank to see how much you have left.

@@morgan3688 but there are people who drill into their motorcycle gas tank and put an angled transparent tube that allows you to see the rough level of the fuel in the tank without a gauge. The transparent mag is more comparable to that than exiting the vehicle.

@@ChucksSEADnDEAD Motorcycle gas tanks are on the top, directly in front of the rider. Magazines are on the bottom of rifles. The importance of this is you have to look around the gun and recognize the mag level, which gives an approx of rnds left. There is very little benefit over a windowed Pmag or smokey polymer. An interesting idea would be a led disply attached to the pic rail, which used a resistance contact in the follower of the mag to determine the height of the follower, and thus roundcount. The only issue is the utilization of electronics may not be as reliable as visual confirmation.

Clear lower and magazine doesn't run out of batteries. Magazine is on the bottom, the whole point of a clear set up would be allowing you to inspect it from the side.

for the volley fire thing i know this is rather silly but you could get a rather large Tarp or set of Tarps and paint a few silhouettes here and there and then fire and study the scatter. or better yet you could try to find a cheap drone to fly near the set up targets and watch for reactions.

Wild Card Bitches Yeehaw Finnish issue ammo has always been copper jacketed lead bullets without massively corrosive primers. Soviets absolutely needed hard chrome barrels due to abrasion from steel jacketed steel core bullets and insanely corrosive powder and primer combos. Finnish rifles were supposed to have hard chrome barrels but the manufacturing process was not ready at the start of mass production and because it wasn't strictly necessary they didn't bother even after they got the process right. Hard chroming releases hydrogen into the underlying steel and if not done right it can cause excessive hydrogen embrittlement.

Ian if you like smokey teas I would look at Chinese Pu-erh's. They're a fermented aged tea that's typically very smokey with a sort of funk from the fermentation. Best steeped via the gong-fu method showing their best flavor on the third or fourth steeping. Absolutely delicious.

I used to make batches of India Pale Ale with two types of hops. And he mentioned he does not care for homemade beer. So three ways to get him to avoid the local tipple. Invite him then feed him what he prefers. Back in the late 1970s I used to go out to Bisley with a friend once a week. Having a place where you can shoot firearms then go for a drink on the premises was a pretty terrific way to meet affable interesting people. One of the guys had a prewar Panhard with a sleeve valve engine. Old Smokey it was,but it ran. Never tried mezcal, but tequila makes for decent paint thinner. No earthly other use I can determine. Personal taste....

.32 ACP is also HIGHER PRESSURE than .380, and 71grns is not significantly less than 90grns. .380s frequently have super-thin brass, thinner than .22 rimfire, which makes it very hard to reload, unlike .32 Auto. FMJ all the way with either, unless using LeHigh designs, but as far as antique, obselescent semi-auto pistols go, .32 is actually kinda...good.

I'm the same as Karl with my ARs, although if you shoot steel case, you need to clean your chamber every 500-1500 rounds in order to prevent stuck cases. It's not melted laquer or polymer, it's the fact that steel does not expand as readily as brass and leads to your chamber getting tighter and tighter and eventually you will get a stuck case. Thanks as always guys!!

they adopted 458 socom when fighting mogadishu forces due to wound ballistics at distances on people that are effectively high on cocaine, so they took like 10 shots to go down. since below a certain speed, 5.56 doesnt fragment, its wound capabilities will be worse when compared to something like .458 socom its a great story also russian caravan tea is really good
