I'd go with the 1903-A4 Springfield myself...but the OP doesn't seem to feel like it was a sniper rifle worth mentioning.
If you call anyone shooting from concealment a sniper, than yes the numbers support the Mosin
I was nearly always shot at from a concealed position.
BTW the distances shot by the Russians are not disputed by any historian I ever read. They often made 800 yard shots or even more. That's the accepted version of history.
You're wrong friend. Well either you're wrong or my history professor who taught my WWII history class was wrong.
Obviously there was more to the battle than just snipers. The Soviets had artillery across the river firing into the city but because of the battle line situation they had problems using the artillery to great effect.
