Could it be an SVD? It uses the AK platform but shoots the 7.62 X 54R cartridge and is a 1 - 2 MOA rifle.
I used to compete in High Power Rifle using a nice pair of match-prepped M-1 Garands. The .30-06 cartridge is somewhat equivalent to the 7.62 X 54R. I agree, it is damned hard even to hit the paper at 600 yards.
Waaayyyy beyond my expertise. I am glad there are Patriots like you who know their stuff! Hand me a weapon and tell me to shoot, and I'm a good shot. Ask me to explain it... not much to offer.
Believe me, I was the guy who made the other shooters look good, I was no expert but I was serious about it all and I have a good deal of time on the line.
The first thing that jumped out at me was... "AK-47 with a scope" .
I don't knowmuch about weapons, but I didn't think an AK was accurate at that range (300-500 yards) even with a scope.
Why would a pseudo-military fanatic with ties to Ukraine and access to weapons chhoose THAT weapon?
