Mauser K98

First time i got to shoot my 1939 Mauser K98. Manufacture code 42. Grouping wise despite having strong rifling ( though not as sharp as my M91/30) The rifle seems to hit all over the place but within about a 1 to 1.5 foot radius. More than enough to get a kill shot on a human in wartime, but not competition accuracy by far. Sorry the audio is so low, its the first time i shot video with this camera so im not sure what i need to adjust.

Seeing as how you left the bolt partially unlatched on the first shot, i'm not going to let you blame the rifle or ammo for the bad accuracy unless it's a Mitchell Mauser, which it looks like, because who knows what the hell they do to their rifles.

@victokirsh It was not a Mitchell Mauser. I have not shot it in awhile but im pretty sure i had it down. Only another range day will tell....hmm now i want to go shooting.

@coppincopp thats excessive, 30 seconds is about all you need

Is that tube a huge silencer ?

It could be a weak main spring, you should get a new spring if the problem persists.

@fire32njetta if you look at about 0:53 when you pull the trigger you can see it drop down a little. Good control of the flinching so you can see it.
