How's the Mosin Nagant shooting going?


===

I've given up on it for the time being. It's not a particularly fun
gun to shoot, at least not for me. Meanwhile I've been given a loaner
M-1 Garand in nice condition. It feels very similar to an M-14 which
I have always liked. Ammo is much more expensive than the Mosin
however.


It is the reason why I went for the M1A over a cheaper M1. 7.62x51 is
commodity ammo, 30-06 is almost a boutique caliber. There is lots of
hunting ammo around at about a buck a shot but not much surplus.


What are you shooting with those heavy caliber rifles? Balloons? Five
liter soda bottles? Armor plate? Alligators?
