    Hi Nice shooting Guys.
    My guess is most poeple would struggle to hit a 22" gong at 100m with open sights let alone at 600m,
    I have had an AG42 as part of my colletcion for over 30 years now and just love it, the accuracy of this rifle is so good, watching Eric closing the bolt does make me cringe a bit as with this rifle when the bolt holds open on last shot you should put to safe, put hand on the twin "hand holds" push forward to retreave the bolt then pull back which will make the stripper clip charging eazyer then flip safety backover and pull backon the hand holds and the bolt will go forward.
    Keep up the good shooting and reviews

    The safety does not have to be engaged when reloading the Ljungman. Engaging the safety actually doesn't do anything when the bolt is locked back after firing the last round as there is a detent pushed up by the magazine that is holding it back.

    • @leosteens8835
      @leosteens8835 6 років тому +1

      the AG has a very good adjustable rear sight, my one is spot on at 600m just turn the dial to your range and it's good +/- elevation, acutaly it's good throught the full range (but using match ammo though)

  • @kathryntruscott6351
    @kathryntruscott6351 6 років тому +1

    Blade type open sights have a built-in error of about 2MoA in perfect comditions. at 600 yards that's a foot either way in aim error alone. Then there's ammo variation..... It would be interesting to see what this very fine rifle would do with a good optical sight, and some high grade ammo. The 6.5 Swede is a great calibre...used for deer hunter here (NZ) quite a bit.

  • @jesper509
    @jesper509 6 років тому +4

    Sorry for my bad English. In my experience the PPU ammo sucks in comparison with m41 ammo. Norma jaktmatch are probably the most common ammo in 6.5x55 in Sweden.

      M1 Garand would be a crap shoot hitting the target at 600yd. They're 5moa rifles, not great for long distance shooting.

    • @brandonsimons543
      @brandonsimons543 6 років тому

      Kenneth Anderson lmao they most definitely are not 5 moa rifles they are very accurate unless you have a shot out barrel. There is a reason they are the most popular milsurps in competitions

    • @DigitalRX2r
      @DigitalRX2r 6 років тому

      Uhh... factory standards were a minimum of a 6" 8 shot group @100yd brand new for acceptance per Army guidelines. Most were on the far end between 3.5-5moa. They were never intended to be long distance rifles, fire superiority was more important than outright accuracy. They're popular in milsurp competitions because they're a dime a dozen and collectors here in the states have a hard on for them. Even Gun Jesus himself has explained the accuracy standards on the M1. Anything 2moa and under for a Garand is exceptional, they're few and far between.

    @3OCALM1 4 роки тому

    My AG42 shoots tight groups for a while then the groups start to open up a little vertically. I'm guessing it's wood to metal fit issue and thermal expansion of the wood in the barrel channel is responsible. This is while running it at a relatively slow rate of fire.

This gives a better balance in this old semi auto guns..please make a test of this..(",) All the best from Denmark

      America has always had a love for .30 cal rifles. Every gun store in america has 308 or 30-06 and nearly every rifle company makes a rifle in those calibers. 6.5mm is making a run for the top though in the 6.5 creedmoor cartridge.

    Before you featured this gun on the channel I had never even heard of it to be honest, and that they're this desirable even less so. Same with the Swedish Mauser, had no idea so many like em. And I'm Swedish. So that's saying something about the gun climate over here :-/

      One more thing to add is that 6,5 aren't considered a moose caliber.
