Swiss K31 to 500yds: Practical Accuracy (Schmidt Rubin shot with GP11ammo)

[@RolandImfeld]

at swiss army we are trained to shoot and hit targets with open sights on 300m ... this is standard distance for swiss military service...

[@musteila6789]

Genau 👍

[@hingedmuch]

Yes, only private shooting range provide targets under 300meters for the GP11. You can hit a coin at 300 meters with standard GP11, k11 long or k31, with the diopter. And with practice (lot) with iron sigth you can hit a 5cm target from that distance easily.

[@marcmonnerat4850]

@Charlie B Well, the visual is a black circle of 60cm wide, but grouping fall within 10cm with iron sight, for decent shooters.

[@fragnix808]

@Charlie B hm.. guess many 16year olds in switzerland do world class shooting then :D I'm a trainer in 300m shooting. the target is explained here: www.jungschuetzen-diessbach.ch/schweizerschiesssport300m/scheibenerklaerungenundvergleiche/index.php the good ones hit 8-10 of 10 in the small circle in the middle with open sights. (not everyone uses the 100points rating though. But for those that do, a100 is a 2" target)

[@faustovieira]

The straight-pull action looks so smooth. I remember Ian from Forgotten Weapons saying that in general straight-pull is worse than bolt-action, but I would say this Swiss precision mechanism is the exception to the rule.

[@outspokengenius]

Straight pull is still bolt action. It's faster than anything short of the Enfield. The Swiss rifles 1889, 96/11, 1911, and K31 are very smooth as is the Canadian Ross. The 1895 Mannlicher is a bit rough getting the bolt open. The Ross, Mannlicher, and Schmidt-Rubin are the only successful military straight pulls. As far as modern straight pulls I think the Blaser is it. Other than .22 rimfires from Browning and whomever makes the Olympic guns for the Biathlon.

[@robosoldier11]

I think the general question was "does a straight pull make that much of a difference performance wise" in comparison to regular bolt rifle mechanics. I would say it could potentially be an edge but I think from what I recall from ians video and just listening to other sources. In the grand scheme of things its really not that much of a benefit or makes that great of an impact. Not to say it doesn't provide some measurable difference but really it might be so minuscule it comes off more as an esthetic distinction then anything assuming good manufacturing on a regular bolt rifle action vs. straight pull.

[@hoppinggnomethe4154]

@@outspokengenius there's this fancy German straight-pull rifles that don't get manufactured anymore, which was covered in a Forgotten Weapons video. the bolt uses some sort of magnetism as far as I remember.

[@makeintoschu]

Diopter or a Scope makes a huuuge difference! The most limiting factor on the Rifle are definetively the sights. I run mine with diopter! The Toblerone joke was great!

[@borkwoof696]

[@jeremy7818]

Luzian Wasescha - I installed an NDT scout scope mount on my K31 which had been re-barrelled with a new 308 barrel in Switzerland as part of a batch they did for export. I could highly recommend that mount so far. Leaves access for easy stripper clip loading which is half the fun of milsurps to me.

[@Silveradocowby07]

Now this is what I have need waiting for.. buy a K31 a month ago at a show, took it to the range last week and this 80 year old rifle blew me away with 2-3" groups at 200 meters with my tired eyes. that is with PPU ammo no less. Have not even watched the video yet and already commenting ;)

[@alanfender123]

I think you might have an issue with the extractor on that K31...the Toblerone ejected down and not up from the chamber...recommend you send it back to Switzerland for refurbishment

[@digitalghosts4599]

I live in Switzerland and I'm a member of the local shooting club in St. Gallen and even though lots of people nowadays prefer Stgw 90 (SIG 550) or the older Stgw 57 (SIG 510), my favorite gun to shoot is K31. One of the most popular rifle competitions across the country is to shoot 10 shots at 300 meters (~330 yards) using any of the Swiss service rifles (other guns are not allowed) and a special version of open sights called the diopter. I think the target is 1x1m and the maximum number of points you can score per shot is 10, meaning you hit a 10x10 cm or 4 inch circle from 330 yards. I'm pretty new to the local shooting club, but I was able to score 87 points with the diopter. My friend who is a complete beginner scored slightly over 70 points just with the stock open sights! He inherited the gun from his grandfather who got it from the army. The gun might be really old, but if you get one in a good condition, it still offers an excellent precision and accuracy. I've once asked in the store and they told me that a barrel in good condition can last around 2000 shots before being worn out. The guns are quite cheap here, around $300 for one in a good condition, but newly made barrels are also available, although they cost a whopping $1000 for some reason. There are also countless accessories for this gun that allow you to install a picatinny rail, new stocks (including polymer ones, alike for a sniper rifle) and who knows what else, but I don't know why would anyone do that to such a nice gun :D Thank you for making such a nice video!

[@spapi3880]

That 7.5x55 smacks the ish out of those plates.

[@Robert53area]

Lol watch the mosin. I own one of these k31, a mosin and a k98. The mosin on steel targets like this nearly rips them off the holder. 7.62x54r packs the hugest punch on torse targets. Should try it some time, you can get a mosin for close to 200 bucks.

[@outspokengenius]

@@Robert53areaIn a military loading both the 7.5x55 Swiss and 7.62x54R run about 2650fps with a 175gr bullet. No reason the 54R would hit harder. Also I haven't seen a Mosin for under $300 in about 5 years here in the Midwest. While I agree their a great cheap alternative they have nothing on the accuracy or the fit and finnish of a K31, G96, G96/11, or Schmidt-Rubin 1889.

[@jegr3398]

I used to have two of these, one from the 30's and one from the 50's. Both still had the soldiers nametag in the butt plate. I traded one away. But I still have the one that was made in the 30's, along with a few cases of GP11. Amazingly good shooting rifle.

[@jacklabc4]

I bought my two K31s from the arsenal when they were on sale for 25.- [about $25] about 20 years ago, one was modified [barrel with an extra rifling, bipod, Kern sight and muzzle brake] the other it is all original to which I mounted the diopter, which I still use at the shooting range.

I had a choice between the K31 and the K11 and I ended up going with the K11 just due to it being a more interesting, historically speaking, rifle to me. I still shoot it all the time. Manufactured in 1914 and still has the soldier tag in the buttplate. I've taken it out to 800 before with no real issues (300m zero). It's one of my favorite guns to shoot still to this day and always a crowd pleaser. Edit: $200 for the K11 back in the day by they way.

[@9HoleReviews]

The papa K11's were way cool. Unreal that they were conceived in 1911 too!

I am currently getting it set up with a St. Marie clamp on scope mount with a Weaver K6 scope. We'll see what that squeezes out of her, then I'll be getting a 12 power scope for some more serious target shooting (as accurate as the rifle is, I don't think I'll need more than that for most applications).

Henry, You should do a video about shooting with iron sights. I'm sure a lot of people dont understand the holds, esspecially an old battle rifle like this, mausers ect that elevate to 1k meters or more. I've seen a lot of guys at the range think they're rifle is junk or out of wack because they're shooting a bullseye hold with every shot regardless of distance or target size.

[@mannequinfukr]

I know the comment is a year old but bloke on the range explains the Iron sights on the k31. A 6 o'clock hold is needed for 300+ m

[@RobWhittlestone]

At my (Swiss) club, one of the older guys told me the better riflemen were trained in the army to shoot to 800m with the regular K31 and in the art of self-camouflage. I own 2 K31's (one self-sporterized with telescopic sight and one with diopter) and a K11. The K11 is still wicked! With the diopter I can get inside 12" at 300m all day.

The army manual states: for the K31 point of aim 10cm below impact with sights set at 100m, 20cm below with sights at 200m and 30cm below with sights at 300m. The K11 iron sights start at 300m, so it goes as follows: aim 30cm below point of impact at 100m, 40cm below at 200m and 30cm below at 300m. If you cannot find GP11 ammo, you want to try lapua 155gr scenar-L, these rifles love longer bullets, forget 168gr SMK or 174gr FMJ. I load 46.2gr Vihtavuori N140 (min dose) and keep hitting the 10 mark at 300m (4 in.) with iron sights, so I stopped experimenting there.

I took my scoped k31 out this weekend and shot 700 yards (my furthest ever) like nothing on a 1/2 D28 plate (14x9). Maybe a 75% hit rate in 10-15 mph wind. Such a sweet shooting rifle. Hand load with a 178gr bullet going 2400 fps. Had about a 22moa come up. Next time I will see if I can try 1000. I feel like this thing could hit pretty easy maybe 50% and the misses are just barely. Maybe a 20" going would hit every single time. I love this rifle! I also shot my m24/47 at 450 with irons and was nailing it nearly every time. I want to get a scope mount for that now too.

I've had a few 3/4" groups at 100 yards that surprised the hell out of me in a very pleasing way. To me it just feels right when I'm shooting it. It's heavy, but really doesn't feel that much while shouldered. I took it out gopher hunting for the fun of it. Ya, gophers don't hold together that well under a 174g bullet lol. Even a few close misses would send the gopher flying just from the impact lol. I got a clamp on scope sight for it. It's off set, and surprisingly holds zero good for the way it clamps on. Plus I can still use the open sights with it. Great rifle.

[@outspokengenius]

The 7.5x55 with a 174gr bullet has basically the same ballistics as a .308 even though the case of the 7.5x55 is a fair bit larger. If your bullets are whizzing past gophers I guarantee the blast is not hurting them. That's simply impossible as proven by Demolition Ranch's video of a .50BMG going through a house of cards and not affecting it. Now if your hitting low the dirt could definately be hitting the gophers.

Who remembers when big5 sold this dirt cheap along wt mausers MOSINS Enfields I got a cz mauser for 80.00 I miss those days

[@Jaden48108]

Impressive shooting.

[@LifeisGood-ye8rl]

The thumb nail said Schmidt and Rubin. It’s not, it’s the only rifle that’s not designed by colonel Schmidt

Henry is a good shooter. I'm Asian too but I struggled to hit torso size target at 300yards with the same gun and ammo

[@L4ND.SH4RK]

For the low price of this powerful weapon, I think some scope mods are in order

[@ericmathis7740]

Damn that 7.5x55 slaps that steel hard!

[@TheXtro101]

The steel target at 150 yards swings with such force💥👊

I regret selling mine. Someone offered me more money then I paid for it and I thought I could replace it, and then the market dried up. That has happened FAR to many times. I have wised up though, especially with surplus. Now when someone asked to buy something for more then I paid for it, I tell them na, but I can score you one if you really want one. Has saved me from selling my surplus collection, ha.

Great concept on the sights, moving to 6 o clock hold the further out you go. I wonder why that idea hasn't been more prevalent in modern arms. Excellent shooting as usual Mr Chan!

[@9HoleReviews]

I know right? It's actually a nice touch, and makes so much sense!

[@Lillvappe]

would love to see you shoot the AG m/42 Ljungman with the 6.5x55

[@9HoleReviews]

oh yes, me too. In fact, I'd personally love to own the M41b and M96 as well.

[@denverbowen4430]

Not an expert but the older military rifles seem to be of a higher quality than what they make today. The kind of accuracy you just displayed was impressive from a 60-70 year old rifle and open sights.

[@Som09mer]

I guess an exception to it would be the current Swiss stgw90 (Sig551) standard issue rifle. But this is shown in the price of it

[@zm1786]

Swiss rifles are always gonna be great. russian rifles are trash in comparison

[@2009Berghof]

The Swiss K31 is one of the slickest firing manually operated military rifles ever.
