Last year I acquired an used Record-1-308 sport rifle - the gun is 20 years old, with some faults - the front and rear iron sights are missing, there are some scratches on the wood, no original documents and accessories. But the bore is in a very good condition so I decided to buy it and have some fun at the range.
It took me some time to get familiar with it, mount a scope ( the rifle has 11mm top rail so the 22 Weaver adapter was needed ), find out what cartridge suits the barrel best.
Since the Record-1 is the progenitor of SV-98 sniper rifle I decidet to mount on it a PS-07 scope, designed for SV-98. It is not an easy scope to use, especially for benchrest like type shooting.
I've tested my Record-1-308 at few local shooting competitions at 200m and once at 300m. During the year I took part in 5 such competitions.
At the last one - last Saturday - I managed to shoot a 5-shot group with a size of 0.81 MOA and, despite the "dot" of the PS-07 scope covering the target in practice, I placed it more or less where it should be. It was the first 5-shots series and I am very pleased with it. In the second series it was a bit more spread out to 1.13 MOA, but overall I still got the best result by points ( and with 0,81 MOA by size ) at 200m in 5 starts in my club competitions so far.
Herewith you can find my shooting progress at 100m, 200m and 300m for 5-shot groups.
