Default Re: Very (too much ?) effective AT Rifles

A9 has rather pathetic armour (10-20mm), quite an easy kill for AT-rifle. Remember that ATRs were accurate enough to target weak spots - sights, muzzles, etc... Finns used their ATRs with great success against similiar-armoured BT tanks.
... but the Finn Lahti AT was 20mm caliber, a quasi-light ATG ! I don't object at accuracy of the PzB but at damage potential of a high-velocity 7.92 bullet.
