How does the Dragunov SVD stack up against western DMR type rifles? How does the Russian and the Chinese variants differ from each other? There are many speculations on the internet about which one is better and how the two are the same.
Henry takes a near mint Chinese NDM-86 (Type 85 SVD clone) to the DMR course with some very surprising results and findings. Bottom line, if you are in combat are you come up against a hostile combatant using one of these... well... brush up on your counter-sniper battle drills.

“Over stabilized “ is the wrong word. “Too much twist imparted upon the 7n1 projectile for the Russian version” would be more apt. -Henry
Same rifle, like Yugo M92 ( same caliber 7.62x54R)
I used this rifle for a 10 year, with scope Zrak 6x42, and im very satisfied for that rifle, from 350/400 meters range.
But, some "precisiusly" shot ( police job - hostage crisis) nope!

I don't know why but that made me giggle for a solid minute, your intro are always the cherry on top of the gold standards test you guys runs, I even did come to learn and appreciate ISPC shooting, thank you guys!
One of the first DMRs to ever be designed, and be successful, AND is still in service today despite it’s age and the age of the cartridge it was made around is a true testament to the capabilities of it’s designer as a gunsmith.
Great shooting, keep up the awesome content guys.
Tony Webb but he’s shooting .308 in this video not 54R...
One of? Which army was the very first to have DMRs in every squad and which rifle was the first DMR?
@@UncleQ57 arguably the SVT and G43, though without the doctrine.
@@wtel9536 Made in 1938 and 1943, respectively, both were just semi-automatic rifles with the same planned role as M1 Garand or FN FAL, i.e. both were meant to increase firepower of infantry, not accuracy or firing distance, and eventually to substitute the main bolt rifles, Mosin and Mauser. Just some of them were used with optical sights. The first such rifle was Mexican Fusil Mondragon. Nothing common with the purposefully designed DMR in every squad. Just two mass production semi-auto rifles, several % of them equipped with optical sights.
@Lone Ranger Ok, Mauser 98 had a scoped version in 1915. It was not semi-auto, but it is not a must for DMR. Wikipedia: the SVD was the first rifle designed from the outset as what is now known as a designated marksman rifle.
Love your Cuz.He seems like a nice guy. The interviews with the Russian and Chinese soldiers are excellent, and gives your vids more depth and ballance.

@@SparkySlow Priced 200% over what it's actually worth... Not to mention the fuckin' magazines.
Don't we all?
If I’m not mistaken the SVD was the first purpose built military sniper rifle and what’s more impressive is it holds up today.
Gold content as always! I have actually had some experience with type 85 in PLA sniper team. First, the rifle I put my hands on was really beaten up. The finish was all gone and I have no idea how many rounds were shot through that specific rifle. Second, there is no real 'Sniper grade ammunition' available to type 85 platform. Sniper team that was equipped with type 85s only shoot general purpose machine gun 54r ammo through type 85. Third, it was a standard procedure that snipers have to take off their scopes and store them separately every time after shooting. Thus, the type 85 that produces 3-4 MOA groups at 100m was not really effective as a true sniper rifle. I have to say the svd is a fantastic system, but it needs systemic sniper equipment and sniper concept to perform well in its role.
Thank you for responding! I have actually been looking for someone who used the T85, would you be willing to let me interview you? It's no issue if you can't, but it would add a lot of context to the subject! feel free to email us back at 9holereviews@gmail.com

You have committed high heresy comrade
Umm... why? 7.62x51's standard for Dragunov-pattern DMRs.
Miguel Rojas 54 is Russian standard, 51 is a NATO caliber. ETA: I assume this is an import gun, based on the caliber, but people may not know about that.
@@scott-tt5zn Ah, right. And you're probably right about the import assumption.
It's a Chinese type 85
My thought entirely. This does not shoot 7.62 X 54R, instead shoots Imperialist Running Dog caliber.
great info
You need to go and shoot this course of fire!!!!
It sure smacks the hell out of the targets all the way out to 700 at least. I would definitely like to see the 7.62x54r version....
What version did you think he was shooting?
It sounded like his loads for the NATO round match up almost exactly with the 7.62x54R rounds... If that's the case, then can we have a try at it?
@TreyWorld Chris NDMs does came in both calibers tho
@libra8a that is incorrect. NDM-86's also came in 54R, and believe it or not that is the much more common variation of them. Look it up.
@@breed4659 Did you even watch the video?
Definitely one of the best videos by you guys so far. It makes so cry that we can't get the superb Norinco SVD rifles into the U.S. anymore. I'd give my left nut for one of these if I could afford one today. I kick myself for not buying one back in the 90's when they were available and reasonably priced. But thank God I at least bought a Norinco SKS rifle. I love that rifle SO much. After three decades of very rough use (hunting and target shooting out in the field) and thousands of rounds, I have not had a single part failure. I baby it now that their prices are skyrocketing though. Sad that I can't even find spare parts for reasonable prices. :( I hate Trump, but I would vote for him if he ended the stupid ban on imported Norinco rifles.

I love how the subtitles said “captured Russian stds” instead of svds.
Bob Huh?
I dont know which one killed the most.
My favorite war rifle.. I always have to tell everybody how I opened a crate of genuine, unissued Russian SVD's, cleaned them off the cosmoline and roughly zeroed them at 300m.. That was back in -96 during my service in the FDF.. They had the untouched battery packages and all. Eventually I got to shoot them quite a lot as I was trained as a sniper/DMR. We shot the 200gr D166 out of them and the gas regulator for the inertia piston was set up for Russian 152gr sniper steel core ball so the recoil was manly. everybody loved them Dragunovs.. And excellent, sleek combat rifle for people who can shoot. Very field friendly, robust and relatively light to carry.
Interesting. What is the FDF? Finnish Defence Force?
@@Surv1ve_Thrive ))))))))))
Such an elegant rifle design. It ended up being a treasure/ trophy. I do regret having sold mine, but I did use some of the funds to purchase an RPR and some other very nice weapons as well as some art supplies. Still, I miss having it.
This was fun. I loved the breakdown and the skits. Thanks!
These skits are hilarious. So glad I found your channel.
Since you don't want the Dragunov, I will gladly take it off your hands.

OHH ISSA SO GOOOOD
Really surprised by the accuracy of this! Very impressed, excellent video, loved the intro :-)
The new SVDM version has a shorter, thicker barrel to help with the wandering issues you can have after a couple of mags, i think they changed the twist ratio as well, max popenker spoke about it on a forgotten weapons video recently. I do recall one of the faxon barrels people say that wandering issues with barrels are mostly due to the type of heat treatment that a factory uses, but i guess its cheaper for izhmash to make the barrels thicker than to get an entire new line of heat treating machines that use a different type of technology.
Ive seen a modified european svd in 300 win mag using svdk 9.3 mags, i wish they made them like that from the factory as well, or maybe in 300 norma magnum!
Very nice video btw. thanks.
Wandering POI can come from an improperly stress relieved barrel or the gas system, among other issues.
Nice video! Since you also tested the Finnish M39, It would be nice to see you test a Sako M92S or a Valmet M62 (or M76). Those are pretty rare guns though.
The amount of comedy you put into your serious reviews is just golden. And that extra history note about barrel twist and difference between Chinese and Russian model was amazing.
Henry
Thanks for making some of the best shoot content on UA-cam. I like your reviews of the guns also. I’d like to see more of those. Keep up the good work guys!
You can't hate the Three Oh Eight. A mauser in 6.5 Swede instead of 8mm does not mean it is no longer a Mauser!
I'd rather have the Mauser in the 6.5, much more potential in the Swede
Now only if there was a svd in 6.5 swede...
@@joshsquatch7474 - They did. Check out the AG42 Ljungman. However, it is a bit more of a Swedish M14 than a Swedish SVD Draganov.
@@F15ElectricEagle ljungman's are neat, I really would like to shoot one.
Verni If you’ve ever heard of “garand thumb” Ljungmans can cause even worse injuries. Sometimes amputations so watch your fingers!
I would argue that the Dragunov looks a lot more handsome in comparison to western DMRs such as the SR-25 or MK14.
To be fair, as Chan mentioned later in the video, almost all western DMR's were not designed from the ground up as DMR's. I'd like to see some western DMR's there were built to be as such from the ground up, would be a cool thing to see.
@@BelialsGenuflect aren't most western DMR's basically accurized versions of some of their standard rifles? Like the M21 and the HK G28?

@@justineallandevelos6491 the HK417 is nobody‘s standard rifle.
Most commercial .308 loads and even standard 7.62x51 NATO ball has nearly identical drop and flight path as light ball 7.62x54. In a side by side, the .308 is a slightly better cartridge in that it's a .308 instead of a .312. A .308 of the same weight as a .312 will tend to conserve velocity a bit better and have just slightly better flight characteristics at range due to better ballistic coefficient. The .308 also burns powder more efficiently which tends to produce slightly better accuracy due to a more even and efficient powder burn during ignition. Same effect you see with the super short magnums as compared to traditional magnum cartridges: more efficient powder burn in a wider case allows for more consistent and efficient burn rate and therefore more consistent acceleration before the bullet leaves the barrel: which also increases consistency of flight path - which is otherwise referred to as "accuracy".
With well made ammunition and two equally as well made guns the differences between .308'7.63 NATO and 7.62x54 R is too nominal for most shooters to experience: because those differences in cartridge case design and ballistic coefficient won't readily make determinable differentiations unless you're stretching the cartridge to long ranges where fractional differences become measurable results. With a pair of stock Remington 700s, one in .308 and one in 7.62x54 R: a shooter probably won't be able to see differences in accuracy at 100 yards, assuming 1) there's no psychosomatic bias of knowing which gun is which caliber and 2) both guns are loaded with equally well manufactured ammunition. At 1,000 yards, however, the differences would become plainly evident because at that distance: the differences would become measurable beyond standard deviation.
Just a few of those complex and often highly misunderstood concepts of long range and or precision shooting.
Observing Libertarian
There’s one fatal flaw in your analysis, you don’t take into account that 7.62x54R has a larger case capacity and thus can carry more powder giving it better performance.
@@Mkvine "thus can carry more powder giving it better performance." -
Were it true. In reality, however, it doesn't have better performance. 7.62 NATO will drop less at 1,000 yards than 7.62x54R.
@@Mkvine Yeah, and if I put extra powder in a .38 special I can turn it into a .357 magnum: if we're talking about uploading a charge then we're not talking about a caliber made to spec. If you took the 7.62x54R and 7.62x51 and uploaded both by the same measure the 7.62 NATO would still out perform the 7.62x54 at 1,000 yards because it has a better ballistic coefficient.
For future references - I don't own a .308: I own a VEPR in 7.62x54R, I like the cartridge, I like it's flight pattern and I like it's cost of ammunition more than anything else. I have a case of 880 rounds of Russian surplus sitting in this very computer room right this very second as I type this. Just because I like the cartridge doesn't mean I'm going to pretend reality isn't what it is.
Also, btw, the Dragunov *is* my favorite Rifle of all time and the reason I have a VEPR and not a dragunov is because I don't have $8k+ disposable income to have an SVD Dragunov - otherwise I would.
@@ObservingLibertarian chinese svd didn't cost that much 10 years ago. Lol

First time I ever seen a Chinese made clone that was anywhere close to reliable as the original. Granted that this was not a Russian made rifle that shot the 7.62x54R, this was a great video and a amazing rifle. I still would love to see the Russian made version go through the range with you guys. Granted that you guys were talking about the muzzle loads were similar, the .308 and the 7.62x54R, they are not the same.
Fun fact about the PSO scope. The little chart in the bottom left is a range finder used to find the range by placing an opponent's feet on the bottom line and seeing where his head touches the swoosh.
Fantastic video 👌
Now it’s time for a Gewehr 43 with ZF4!
You guys are killing it lately. I love this.
Have you considered the Yugo M76 using the M75 ammunition? There are reweld projects that have been completed. About as close to original as one may get. There are 6x42 Zrak M93 scopes available with the 7,9 turret
Master Warning Based on my experience with the M75 in the M-76 it was erratic as hell. Commercial FMJ was more accurate than it was. Good luck finding a 6X Zrak. Those are almost unobtanium here in the United States because Bosnia refuses to sell them to us. I found one in Europe with the correct mount, but the seller wanted $800 before shipping.
winkleried hello
I have 3 m76 all produced by two river arms. I’ve got a m93 scope actually...and about 5000 rounds of m75. My luck has been very good..all my m76 have original barrels. One rifle is built on a recut cai receiver..one on a tortort receiver and the other is a reweld. May I ask which commercial ammo do you prefer.
Master Warning For non match Ball ? PPU FMJ. For Match Grade. Either Hornady Vintage Match, or PPU match.
Good afternoon, I suggest from the observation that you support the Dragunov more at the outlet of the pipe, so you will have less margin of error when impacting at greater distances. As for the ammunition and reload it is known that 7.62 x 51 mms is not the same as the .308 Winchester ... it is always thrown with the same weight in grains at points, and I use Speer Rode-nose.303 " British in me Mauser model 1909 Argentino, what varies are the refills in grains of gunpowder A-27., Max. 46.7 and minimum 40.2, 42 grns. to hunt, and with an optics of 6x or 8x equal to the binoculars Carl Zeiss Jena. My original tips are Spitzer 220 grns. and they are not achieved, so I use those of the English Mauser MK-4., 303 British 180 grains., the best brands Speer and Sierra Pro-Hunter., The optics of the Dragunov are missing increases (xs), as one gets older, the view diminishes, it is inevitable, I practiced pulling at about 650 yds, with winds of 35 miles, lateral, best regards Denis Morend and good impacts.

And yes you are right, they are all in between 9-10g ( 140-150grain). The twist 1:320 mm is used in the civillian "TIGRE"-SVD Version as in the SV-98 sniper Rifle. So it's interessting, if 7N1 with a mass of 9,8g (about 152gr) is realy used not that much, what the 1:240mm twist is optimized for (analog to the Mosin Nagant 1891/1930). Also the successor of the SVD, the SVCh (Snaiperskaya Vintovka Chukavena) hat the same twist of 1:240mm in 7,62x54R and 1:320mm in .308.
And please, the SVD was designed as a sniper rifle! Not a DMR. DMR is a definition from the USA, that came over 30 Years after the SVD was developed and deployed. A DMR by your US definition today, is something different. Not totally different, but different. The DMR by western definition was not a .300 calibre..it was always a kind of tuned , standard rifle variant till the late 2000s. SVD is a Sniper rifle.
I wanted to get a new dragunov class in warzone but now I'm gonna become the quiet kid
Sniper cartridge 7.62 PS (7Н1) . In the mid-1960s, to increase the effectiveness of fire from the SVD sniper rifle, the 7.62 mm sniper cartridge-7.62 PS (PS - a bullet with a steel core) was created and adopted in 1967. A sniper cartridge has 2-2.5 times better accuracy than a cartridge with a conventional bullet . The sniper cartridge is not specially marked, but the label "Sniper" is applied to cardboard or paper packs, metal boxes and wooden boxes.
7, 62X54 SNIPER CARTRIDGE WITH ARMOR - PIERCING BULLET-7.62 SNB (7H14) . The cartridge is not specially marked, but a black stripe is applied to the paper bag with 20 cartridges in addition to the inscription "Sniper".
subtitles at 9:52 "Chinese came in and captured a lot of Russian Stds" Best error in subs
And they probably did, truth in editing
Great video, I just got a Barrett REC 10 308, maybe a future video for you. I have used mine out to 800yds shooting 175gr Sierra (factory new ammo)using a Leupold v2 6x. Shoots 1to 1.5 MOA at that distance (depending on my wind call). I'm going to try your 175 load to see how it does. A very light and well made rifle. Hope to see it on your vids.
Best.... Intro.... Ever.......!
Of all of your videos....this one was an incredible learning experience for me. Thank you for the work you put into this stuff.
Cheers! This was a learning experience for me too, what a lovely piece of engineering!
@@9HoleReviews A question: how was the trigger? Most AK variants leave me less than satisfied. I know that the SVD is actually quite different in some ways than the AK. I am curious if the SVD has a crisp trigger. Considering your shooting, I would imagine it does.
noman mcshmoo the SVD trigger was a nice light 4lb two stage math trigger. Makes sense because Y. Dragunov was a sports shooter
@@9HoleReviews Now that warms my heart. I am still fighting to get a decent trigger on my custom Galil build. Gun is stupid accurate ( very custom barrel and one hell of a builder out of TN) but the trigger is just....blehhhhhhh. The Israeli trigger was bleh...the ALG is bleh...I'll find something one of these days!!!!!!
Henry doing yellowface in this day and age, smdh. I’m outraged and demand an apology!
I get fly aways as barrel gets hot. Hornaday TAP 168g is amazing. I've stepped mine out to 450yds.. Every rounds on silhouette steel. Love 💘
