We all know Mosin Nagants shoot high, bu I'm curious to know just HOW high the average one shoots. So, instead of stating what we've heard the average to be, why don't we all divulge how high our particular rifles shoot?
For consistency, we'd need to set parameters, so let's say 100M (109 yards - 100 yards would probably be close enough), with the sight leaf set to 100 (assuming it isn't modified), with standard cheap surplus ammo, which I think is all pretty much the same or at least similar. Let's assume a center hold, so the total measurement would be from the point at which the front sight splits the target to the center of the group.
With these conditions, my 1932 Tula shoots a whopping 17" high. How about yours?
