I have fired several Nagants, and they are utter garbage compared to the M21, M24 and M40 SWS's.

NAGANT RING-A-DING-DING!
"But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away, for his name is Obama."9 posted on

I have seen 2 receivers blown out last year at a local gun range. I own 5 of these guns used to shoot them all the time but I have retired them until I do some more research on this.
I am going to say this I suspect ammo as both people involved had mil surplus! I got a round of it tore it down and it looked as if it had been loaded with cordite the little match stick looking stuff.
