I didnt notice until after I posted there was a photo section. feel free to move it. I got some good videos, I'll see if I can post them later.
This was the first time shooting it on the lafette. Everyone, including myself was amazed at how accurate that combo is. we had an 18" plate at 100 yds, and once it was dialed/locked in every shot rung center mass. The only reason we didnt dump whole belts into it was because a 10-15 shot burst would almost knock it over.

My friend put a couple on photobucket

We put 1000 rounds through it. There were only 2 times it didnt fire when the trigger was depressed, both due to damaged belts.

Awesome video. Are you running an original German bolt with a bolt catch installed? RPM seems to be around 1200 rpm. Were you firing the Romanian 7.92?
