Have you guys come across a website called modern firearms? I have come across it several times, the website itself looks very organized and contained some good informtion about small arms produced/deployed by most nations.
However, I have come across some very obvious errors in their data regarding some small arms.
Example: Russian Dragunov SVD/NDM-86. In their website they stated that the effect range of svd is about 600 meters, which is absolutely false. I personally own a romainan psl SVD rifle and what I have heard, its effect range is abotu 1300 meters, I personally can hit a man sized target at 1.7meter high 9 out of 10 times at 800 yards with russian 7n1 sniper ammunition.
Another example: Chinese m99 anti material sniper rifle, 200 meter effective range?? wtf?? a .50 bmg anti material sniper rifle only hits at 200 meters? my mosin hits better than that.
There are several other examples like that and I stopped using modernfirearm website for small arm research/study. Have you guys notice this problem on their website?
