World at War: 700 Yards Mayhem - British Sniper vs German Sniper - No4 MKI T vs High Turret!

[@stevecallaghan2466]

I saw my father put down a bull moose with a No 4 Mk 1 shooting downhill across a valley at 350 meters with the iron sights. One shot and the bull was down and never moved. We had to hike down one mountain and climb another to dress the kill. Dad was a firearms instructor in the RCAF during the war, and shot left-handed with a right-hand operated bolt action rifle. Dad had the matched scope but never used it. He didn't need to. I never saw him waste a round if he did not have a clear killing shot while hunting, and I never saw him miss the first shot. I'm a decent shot, but the old man was in a different league. That generation grew up with guns, putting meat on the table during the Depression. We bought him an 8mm with a left-handed bolt and a 4X scope on it one Christmas, and he still preferred his old Enfield most of the time! When we cleaned out the house after Mom passed there were still two boxes of ammo, one for each weapon, with only six .303 rounds and four 8mm rounds missing from the boxes. Each missing round represented a freezer full of moose, deer or caribou meat. I learned to shoot using that Enfield as a boy. Loved that old gun but it went to another family member because my spouse hates firearms and hunting. I'd take one any day over over the ones I was trained on in the service in the 60s, mostly because it fits my comfort zone while shooting.

700 yards with 1940s ammo is just an incredible performance. Really goes to show that if you can't regularly hit stuff with modern match grade ammo, a modern well built bolt gun, and good glass you just need to spend more time practicing rather than blaming the equipment.

I understood ball powder was more modern, I thought all ww2 British ammo used was cordite strips? the commonwealth forces used cordite as I understood it. dad said they used to buy used 303 ammo after the war, take out the cordite and refill them with powder, or did snipers get different ammo? it doesn't explain this, so i am a bit confused.

Excellent presentation with helpful commentary done with good humour and no BS or time wasting and just a good old thump "tink" for a sound track. When I was a schoolboy (1962-6 era), our shooting team used standard no. 4 and surplus WW2 .303 ammo. No scope, no bushes permitted in sight aperture. Battle sight plus flip up smaller aperture with micrometer type thumb screw on top for elevation adjust. No windage adjust. Falling plate run-down shoot from 300 yds. (plates 12 in x 12 in 30x30cm) HPS no problem. Sling support only permitted no barrel or butt rests. At 600 yds regular range targets were from memory 4 feet wide and six feet high. Scoring rings inner about 8 inches (20cm) diameter, then 16 inches (40cm) diameter Usually got HPS on inner out to 600 yards using sling support only from prone position. Barrel and butt resting strictly not permitted for our college team members. 900 yard range used a few times. Once sighted-in and established necessary aim-off for wind, score in 30in (80cm) inner usually consistently on target. Always allowed to fire 2 warmers and allowed to sight-in for wind (no telescopes, just a 8inch diameter (20cm) white disc displayed in shot hole which we could hardly see and relied most on a voice message from the butts team working the targets. On windy days often took 10 shots to get a five round group and establish wind offset. I must have inherited markmanship from my grandfather who as a 3 Rifle Brigade rifleman could hit the front plate on a maxim gun about 200 yards distant with his SMLE .303in while the Maxim was shooting at him and his mates. He never told me that. It came from another old soldier in the same platoon. (Both WIA on 12 Oct 1917) When I joined regular NZ army 1967 I found I could not shoot as well with 7.62mm L1A1 SLR standard ramp aperture sight, as I had with Enfield No. 4 a couple of years before. One inch groupings at 100m no problem, 12in (30cm) groupings at 300yds still achievable from lying position but not consistent at 600m on man sized targets. We shot at those old left over old WW2 German enemy target profiles (ie crouching, head and shoulders, gun team profiles). We did standing, sitting, kneeling, lying positions, stationery, moving, plus short range snap shooting and night shooting. Never used M16 at any range greater than 100 yds. All this skill at arms wasted as the next calibre I used was 105mm and I quickly learned this required a team effort and not so much individual skill.

[@johnquinn1050]

I trained on the 303 in the 1970's in the Irish Reserves. Beautiful weapon and brilliant shooting. A point on using the bolt. We were taught to only use our thumb and forefinger to operate the bolt and never to use our palm. This was to ensure you did not trap your palm as the bolt locked down.

[@KevinHallSurfing]

Same. Mid 1960's I always remember we were taught never to palm the bolt just thumb and forefinger. Army cadets then under Australia Commonwealth Military Forces using mainly Mk III * SMLE range 200-600yds ... and drill of course.

Gotta tell this story here. An uncle of mine told me how he got the freedom of a town by... shooting down a Zeppelin. Lee Enfield. Billericay, Essex, England 1st World War. Sentry duty on a cold foggy night. Up there somewhere the engines of a Zep could be heard - but all was fog. They were passing over en route to bomb London. Engines louder. Slowly through the fog - a Zeppelin. She had had to drop down to find her way... so Ernie (Cecil Ernest Wright) watched. The gondola with steering crew lit from inside (from behind) just visible, up there somewhere about 300 yards. So Ernie (who would go on to be a sniper in 1920's Afghanistan) shot all he could see of the crew. Gave them all his rounds (had plenty). Zep drones on, lost in fog/mist/cloud. 15 mins later, a loud explosion. Sky lit up. She'd run aground on a hillside; apparently no-one was in control.... Told to me by Ernie about 1970. A small, quiet harmless-looking guy (he would never go out with a spotter, as you ended up talking... then get shot by Afgani snipers) - he worked solo. Never said how many he'd shot, but more then a few.... Hm.

[@honeybadger6313]

@@FenellaBeach yep you are right . My mistake

[@howler6490]

Question...simple better than average scoring in initial testing was enough to be sent to H n H,or did they have a second round of 'deciders'.

[@FenellaBeach]

@@howler6490 All rifles were factory tested at 100 feet with a requirement to place 4 out of 5 shots in a rectangle 1” x 1.5” and a randomly selected 10% were further tested at 600 yds, and that was it. So potentially a selected rifle may have been subject to two accuracy tests. H&H rejected the majority of rifles sent to them which would indicate that the factory testing was pretty rudimentary. Accuracy tests for the No. 4 (T) sniper rifle involved placing 7 out of 7 shots within a 5 inch diameter at 200 yards and 6 out of 7 shots into a 10 inch diameter at 400yards.

@@FenellaBeach At that time barrels were straightened by hand and it was impossible to get all 100% perfect. It made sense to select the best and refine them for sniper use. After all the rifle was a battle rifle designed to take a bayonet.

That's interesting idea. I'm looking for M1917 and my friend promised me to hold one until October for me, so that would hopefully take care of getting M1917 for video, now I will have to look for P14

[@keithlaub2178]

Owning most of these and watching what you do with them is yeah. I know the feeling. My son started his collection at 7yo British smle was first then a siamese Mauser stole his ❤. He doesn't appreciate the mule kick. From the Mosin nagant. We appreciate all you and camera crew do.

[@kentuckyboy541]

These are so much fun. Thanks Rob.

[@cranegantry868]

900 yards with 40's ammo, center bull, still day, temperature about 25C, prone position, iron sights. I did it consistently. That rifle when zeroed correctly is excellent.

[@kieronbevan2949]

Fantastic rifle. I have had the pleasure of using one of the No 4,s. Nice groups at 300 yards with just the iron sights. 😁

[@ionlyownone1911]

Outstanding marksmanship. You did that fast and I didn’t once see you adjust for natural point of aim . Very impressive

[@chappy4944]

Great work and a jolly good show, wonderful instruction and shooting skills you have Sir.

[@masonlea6932]

Great shooting and its amazing you are doing it with ammo from the 1940s not modern match grade ammo.

[@pennsyltuckyden9823]

Excellent shooting, beautiful rifle and awesome video. You can check out a 1943 Savage made Enfield I feature on here.

[@jaimieoxford8212]

I love the .303 It's the only bolt action I have ever shot with. I'm not a pro or regular shooter but going to the range with my dad was a rel treat. The only problem was that my dad's rifle was all origional and was not a sniper version so it had the original brass but plate. I remember lot's of bruises adter a day at the range. No scope only iron sights.

Gangsta

[@yuriboyka6131]

My pops is a wiz with weapons, but him raising his family in NY he didn’t trust teaching us how to shoot he didn’t want us to get used to firearms so we got used to using limbs. But I wish he would’ve taught me from a young age himself so I didn’t have to do it myself and pay for all the ammo and shit like that at ranges lol

[@stevegimenez9981]

That's what I learned to shoot with 1 mark 4 With World War II ammo and it's shot just fine Great video keep it up

[@rupertmcnaughtdavis3649]

You have made us Lee Enfield aficionados very happy! From South Africa.

[@VintageRiflesShootersClub]

Hi Rupert, thank you for watching! How hard it is to buy Lee Enfield rifles in South Africa now?

[@rupertmcnaughtdavis3649]

@@VintageRiflesShootersClub Lee Enfields are still common in South Africa.

[@jasonbennett9995]

IT is nice to see someone as excited as I was The first time I picked up this rifle as I have shot all the different versions at least the ones available to me and I was lucky enough to have one of the best coach in the country if not the best Paul Bodden

[@ethinos2719]

These are the weirdest looking AKs ever. I'm subscribing to this channel, too. I've had a hankering for more surplus rifles anyways.

[@MiGallagher]

Thank you Mosin Crate for the Ammo! Thank you Robski and AKOU for the content

[@jkreskey]

I shot a 6 inch group in the center ring. Using 1956 British mil surp ammo open sights. With my 1943 #4mk 1 T. During a competition in Nevada. I actually placed 21 of 22 in the end, but I was shooting against an open set of bench rest shooters. They are very nice package. 👍

[@doubled6419]

Holy smokes.

[@jonathandowdell6518]

Fantastic video thank you

[@fwod1867]

A little bit of thread locker adhesive and your screws stay in place 😀 Very nice rifle 🤤

[@j.angelis6934]

Love the way You have edited this video With pulling back from the close up of you To a wider field showing the target, well done!

[@charlesfitton9677]

Excellent! I've never seen the "swirl" captured on film before..

[@BradTracy1]

Thanks for the video, great shooting with vintage WWII ammo and a MK4 (T) sniper rifle. When I was stationed at Whidbey Island Washington 98-2002, I built a M1D sniper using a 1943 receiver and a new 1953 dated M1D barrel I found at a hole in the wall gun shop in Boise Idaho. Sadly I don't have the rifle any longer, but what a sweet shooting rifle that M1D was.

[@VintageRiflesShootersClub]

I have M1D and it's a great rifle. I just think that US Army could do better job at finding better scope for it at that time when it was released...kind of set that rifle back...leave it up to do the bureaucrats to screw good idea up...

[@MaxMeridius0920]

I own both of these rifles - I don’t have a long range to shoot - but this is awesome to see! Love your vids

[@torryg441]

Nice. I can hit an 8" plate at 300 meters with open sights with my No4 Mk 1 (1944 ball ammo). Loved the format of this video and the ongoing commentary.

[@mikeman584]

Fantastic demonstration of a vintage British classic in the hands of a very skilled marksman. I could only imagine what a sniper like Rob would be capable of in WW2. I have a mk4 1 myself stamped Fazekery Liverpool 07 1943 complete with pigsticker bayonet. Though I enjoy shooting it I and the rifle are not in the same class as Rob accuracy wise. Must try harder.

[@louiscaudron1857]

Dear sir Rob i have a enfield like that one made in 1955 its a sniper missing the cheek rest and the scope. I have a parker and hale diopter on it. Love the rifle.

[@danieldelewis2448]

That camera work is awesome. You can see a shockwave before the bullet hits the target. The last sound you'll never hear

[@Davidautofull]

i just came onboard from "buffmans range". he said he sent some plates for you to shoot the tungsten core 8mm ammo at. that is some nice shooting.
