The SVD is a notorious Soviet era DMR, which has proven itself on the battlefield. It is chambered in a battle cartridge, and belabored with a less than optimal BDC which requires dialing in known distances on targets before engaging.
The WWSD is a modern AR15, and when paired with an ACOG and MK262 77 grain ammunition, is very accurate and easy to shoot.
Let’s time getting the same amount of grains on target, requiring 2 hits from the WWSD rifle to every single hit from the SVD at 300, 400 and 500 yards and see what conclusions we can come to about these platforms.
