M24A2 SWS Test Firing (SINO MAY GUSTO MAKASUBOK?)

Published on December 18, 2024
Duration: 5:47

This video demonstrates the test firing of an M24A2 SWS rifle at a Philippine Army marksmanship training facility. The instructor, Ranger, provides insights into zeroing the rifle at 300 meters, explaining the process of adjusting for elevation and windage based on shot placement. He details how to interpret MOA (Minute of Angle) adjustments for precise aiming.

Quick Summary

The M24A2 SWS is a Filipino-made, suppressed sniper rifle chambered in .338 Lapua Magnum. When zeroing at 300 meters, instructors use MOA adjustments, where 1 MOA is approximately 3 inches. Corrections are made for elevation and windage based on shot placement to achieve accuracy.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the M24A2 SWS rifle and where is it made?

The M24A2 SWS is a suppressed sniper rifle chambered in .338 Lapua Magnum. It is proudly Filipino-made by Armscor Philippines and was tested at a Philippine Army marksmanship training facility.

How do you adjust a rifle scope for accuracy at 300 meters?

Adjustments involve correcting for elevation (up/down) and windage (left/right) based on where your shots land. The instructor uses MOA (Minute of Angle) to quantify these adjustments, noting that 1 MOA is roughly 3 inches at 300 meters.

What is MOA and how is it used in rifle zeroing?

MOA stands for Minute of Angle, an angular measurement used for aiming. For rifle scopes, 1 MOA typically corresponds to about 1 inch of adjustment at 100 yards. The instructor explains how to interpret shot groups in terms of MOA to make precise corrections.

What are the key steps in zeroing a sniper rifle at 300 meters?

Key steps include firing initial shots to determine point of impact, analyzing the group for elevation and windage deviations, calculating the necessary MOA adjustments, and applying those corrections to the scope until the rifle is accurately zeroed.
