Chapeau for hitting a bottle at 600 metres, especially with the original metallic sights, mine wasn't that accurate, at the time I used to get better results with a "Persian"

Not a "bottle" Sergio. I don't know if you are familiar with one gallon milk (or juice) containers sold in US? I fill them with water, and put them in the freezer. They are FUN to blast from the distance. The size is similar to a human head (or a smaller watermelon). When hit frozen, they simply explode if hit by high powered rifle cartridge, which 7.92X57 certainly is.
