Okay so, everyone agrees the SVD kicks ass. load that bad boy up with 7N1 and just shred anyone you come across with a semi-auto mosin!
However, I was looking across the ballistics chart today and I noticed something strange
7N1 looks like what you expect 86 damage(just enough to one hit the thorax), and enough pen to deal with armors class 5 and under with ease, and will still handle class 6 armor.
wait…
.366…
.366 AP is basically the same?
yeah it's hard recoiling and inaccurate, but who cares when you can get 75 round mags on the flee market??
All jokes aside, why isn't a vepr-209 kitted to the nines and loaded with .366 AP the meta? Why are all the chads running around with SVDs instead?
