What's up hide members! I made a video today showing what the Mosin Nagant 91/30 does to a concrete cylinder. Hope you like it!

This was Brown Bear FMJ 174gr (lead core) ammo. My Mosin really likes this stuff. Thanks for watching!

Very cool! I have a 91/30 and three M-38's. By the way, how did you mount your bipod?

I used an uncle mikes wood screw swivel stud. The bipod is a harris bipod 6-9". Thanks for watching!

It's a certain uncle mikes screw, the package comes with two screws, a short one and a long one. part number is 2520-0 use the short screw so you don't hit the cleaning rod. here is a video of what I'm talking about.

The Mosin round is a fairly powerful round. Ballistics are pretty much right between the 7.62 x 51 and the 7.62 x 63.

That's true, I shot a 3/8" steel plate with the .308 at 300 yards and the mosin puts the same size dent (about 1/4" deep) on the same steel plate at 400 yards. The .308 at 400 yards barely dings the plate.

What ammo are you using? The old milsurp steel core should go right through 3/8".

I used Brown Bear 174gr FMJ ammo. My mosin seems to really like this stuff.

Nice video. Can't wait to pick up a Nagant!

Impressive! I have seen concrete cyls like that before. IIRC they are for destructive testing of concretes in a giant concrete crushing apparatus. Almost as impressive as shooting at them! Wish i could get my hands on some to shoot at! ..wonder how M2 ball 30.06 would compare.
