  Dragunov Sniper Rifle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The SVD was the world's first purpose-built military precision marksman's rifle, and is common (along with several variants) throughout the former Eastern Bloc.
The SVD is chambered for the 7.62 x 54R rimmed cartridge, with a muzzle velocity of about 830 meters per second.
Inaccuracy in this weapon is primarily due to the effects of the semiautomatic action of the SVD on the barrel harmonics; the accuracy of the rifle suffers at greater ranges.

Though it is not considered as accurate as sniper rifles commonly found in western military service, the SVD has repeatedly shown that it is certainly accurate enough for the vast majority of anti-personnel military operations.
First, the SVD was designed from the very beginning as a sniper rifle platform (quite possibly the first ever, definitely the first semi-automatic sniper rifle).
These rifles (PSL/FPK, M76) use a long-stroke piston form of operation similar to the Kalashnikov and thus do not have the same accuracy potential as the SVD or its variants.

The majority of the rifles bore no evidence of any under lying Russian markings, so I assume that the majority of the NDM 86 rifles were actually produced by the Chinese at the triangle-26 factory.
The SVD uses a short stroke gas piston & was/is designed to utilize a special round, the Soviet 7N1 & the newer variant (which I believe) is the 7N14, the SVD is a machined receiver versus the stamped receiver of the PSL's.
If the rifles are fired w/proper ammo in their designed form (no firing pin spring) they are as safe as any other, many years ago I bought an M1A, I believe it was an Armscorp receiver, there was a tag affixed to rifle in red & white that said "Danger, use only military grade ammunition".

 History of the SVD Sniper Rifle
The SVD rifle has its origins in 1946 when the Soviet Army desired a self loading sniper rifle to replace their aging Mosin sniper rifles.
The rifle was made even more accurate with the introduction of a special steel cored sniper rifle cartridge that increased the rifle's accuracy by 2.5 times.
It was this accuracy and reliability that impressed the evaluators the most, and on July 3rd 1963 Dragunov's sniper rifle was chosen to be the next sniper rifle of the Soviet Army.
