I owned a M63 about forty years ago. It was new when purchased. It functioned reliably but was not especially accurate. The trigger was narrow and the trigger pull heavy. Consequently I was never sure of its capabilities.
I did not like the disconnector. The rifle would fire with the bolt partially open. This caused the unsupported case to rupture and blow a variety of particles into the right side of my face. I was very surprised that the small ejection port permitted the material to hit me.
Someone stole the rifle about thirty years ago, and I could find no reason to replace it
