Looking for someone who's fired a FN 30-11

[Viktor Gorchev]

Hi folks,

As detailed in an older post of mine, I recently bought myself a FN 30-11 .308 sniper rifle. Problem is, I still have a 5 month waiting time until I get my license and can actually fire it, and since I can't really find anything about its performance online, I'm looking for people on here who may have fired one in the past or even currently own one, and could tell me something more about said perfomance. The amount of recoil I can expect, the accuracy potential, etc etc.

Thanks in advance,

-Vik

Well, i recall it was heavy, and the ammo issue was from sudafrica, came in brown air seal, i just shot like 5 rounds but i never check the target, the recoil was ok, but i remember the dust after i shot the rifle.
Also the bipod and flash hider,were identical to are MAGs.
i will look for pictures leter.
