The content promises a forthcoming tabletop review of this excellent PCC (Pistol Caliber Carbine).
This video, titled "Moonscape" by Nutnfancy, documents a backpacking trip with friend Cr0cket20.

Music for the video was licensed from Jason Shaw.
Nutnfancy conducts practical cold weather testing of the Mosin-Nagant 91/30 rifle in snowy conditions, with temperatures ranging from 15-20°F. The rifle features a DuraCoat finish and a Millet red dot sight, which is found to be superior to iron sights for speed and low-light conditions. The S&K scope mount is highlighted as stable. The video discusses the rifle's performance in the cold, potential rim lock issues with ammunition loading, and the importance of aggressive bolt cycling. Despite an 'awful' trigger, good shooters can achieve accuracy. The Mosin-Nagant is compared to more modern bolt-action rifles in terms of speed and ergonomics, but its affordability and effectiveness for the price are praised, making it a great option for military rifle enthusiasts seeking recreation and training.

The video highlights the importance of judgement over gear reliance, despite carrying essential equipment like a Kelty SuperTioga backpack and excellent rain gear. They demonstrate the risks of plummeting core temperatures and the difficulties of navigation in snow-covered trails. After retreating, they successfully set up a bivy in harsh weather, finding comfort in warm food and gear discussions.

The video concludes with a thank you to Cr0cket20 and mentions Allie the Mountain Dog.
