Short video of the massacre after I got the Mosin-Nagant zeroed(ish):
Then out came the 10/22 and I heard audible thanks from my shoulder. The scope was switched over from the AR so it took some major readjustment. I basically just followed the dirt sprays, cranked it a few times, and repeated until I got in onto the target.After a bit of that, I got some nice consistent groupings. (low from my jerking the trigger. I was shooting fast):

First Mosin?
You really should try gallon milk jugs with food coloring in them, they just explode. I also used a few laundry detergent bottles on the same day, the water explosions are just epic.
Yep, it works pretty well :-)
Ironically we use fresh milk and make our own laundry detergent so no jugs or bottles. :)

Wow, good on you man. My family use to get all our milk from goats when I was younger until my brother refused to drink it once he was old enough to understand dates and saw the bottle was expired by a few years. I kind of miss it.
Butler Creek offers a slip on recoil pad that makes the Mosin a pussy cat to shoot. for less than $15.00 and 30 seconds of work you can tame that painful steel buttplate.
This is an example, you must measure your mosin to be sure of a fit.

I almost bought that rifle, but I left my C&R license at home, and when I called back, he said the kid next to him had snapped it up.
Looks like the bolt is pretty smooth.
