Confuseus say: Prior to being concerned about making your $300 rifle 'sniper capable', you must first make yourself 'sniper capable'.
He's in "special ops" so he's far beyond sniper capable.

Here is the world's greatest sniper's scope ...Also your sniper rifle is going to be as good as your scope.
I think that some of you are forgeting that those rifles were ment to be shot over a thousand yards at a man shooting out of a trench with iron sights. My uncle and dad both could take one of those guns out there and put it almost threw the same hole everytime. And as for most of your "hunting rifles" of lower price range they are not going to stay accurate after to many shots cause they are built for cold bore shots at animals. Also your sniper rifle is going to be as good as your scope. Cheep scope means less accuracy at longer range.

Those rifles were made to "volley fire" at large groups of people at 1000 yards. Shooting almost through 1 hole at 1,000 yards would be under 1/10 MOA. That completely outside the realm of possibility for either a mil surp or an entry level hunting rifle. Even at 100 yards that would be under 1 MOA, which would be highly rare for a mil-surp but very possible with a modern entry-level hunting rifle, many of which are sub-MOA out of the box. As for "staying accurate after to many shots," I'm not quite sure what you're talking about. If you are talking about your zero changing as the barrel heats up, that has to do with barrel quality and barrel weight more than anything. Just about any modern hunting rifle has a higher quality barrel built to closer tolerances than any 75 year old gov't-arsenal rifle. As for barrel weight, most mil surps have a light-profile barrel... as do most hunting rifles. There is no significant difference there. If you're talking about long-term barrel life, it comes down to the quality of the barrel again. Neither mil surps or hunting rifles typically came chrome-lined.
