1968 M39 with range report.

[Calfed]

I've been on a tear digging out rifles that I've bought over the last few years and never shot.

I got this 1968 "sneak" M39 back in 2010 and got busy and didn't fire it. I finally took it out of the safe and took it to the range last week to see what it could do.





I used some Prvi "match" 54R ammo @ 100 yards with these results.



I fired the first two that hit the center, then threw one up at 11 o'clock, then another two in the center, then the last two hit @ 11 o'clock. Not sure why it did that because I had the sense that they were all good shots on my part.

Those Huckleberrys sure shoot good don't they.

Sweet.

[Calfed]

They sure can. I've used my "B" barrel M39 in several vintage military silhouette matches, with decent results

[Fozzybear]

Is it .308 or .312/11 bore.

[Calfed]

I haven't slugged the bore, but the M39's have a .310 bore...or at least they are supposed to.
