Russian Tula MU-12 Olympic Rifle
« on: September 17, 2014, 11:46:59 PM »
[Cold War Russian Tula MTs-12 or (MU-12) Olympic competition rifle. There is likely less then 20 of these rifles in the US. This rifle has been D&T with scope blocks added, but I do have the orininal peep sights also. The bottom of the stock has been altered via a black piece of wood to change the shape which happens to look very similar to my Walther International Match or an Anschutz Supermatch. This rifle was already altered by a British shooter and was in really bad shape when I bought it. I went with a BSA fixed 36 power target scope mounted to the existing Unertl type blocks.  The double-set trigger is currently set sub-oz. This is no small rifle...  the barrel width is just over 1" thick at 30" long.

I think she cleaned up pretty good. Hopefully I can put some rounds on paper soon and see what she can do.   :)

1776 will commence again if you try to take our firearms... It doesn't matter how many Lenins you get out on the street begging for them to be taken.

Very interesting unique rifle! That sure looks like it'll center-punch some bullseyes. What kind of 22lr competition grade ammo do you prefer?

Just a little 22lr..   ;D

Welp...  there is a ton of match ammo brands, but I like Eley, Wolf, Tack-22 and a few others.

I haven't really had the chance to shoot this one but yup, its like twice the weight of a Vostok with 4 huge internal locking lugs on the bolt.

Looks like you might put out a Rabbits eye at 100 yds with that rifle.
