       I think the need for them went down.  In ww2 the Soviets tactics
       were different than they are now.  THink of them as not
       necessarily snipers, but as also having a shitload of designated
       marksmen in addition to their snipers.

       So pretty much the SVT-40 was really the first DMR? And becuase
       of the wider issue of SVT-40 among troops the need for sniper
       was diminished? But still, wouldn't you want to have as many as
       possible if/when the Cold War went hot?

       I don't really know the answer to your question.  You may want
       to really dig in and research this or discuss it with someone
       who is more well read on the subject than me.

       On 7.62x54r net, It gives reasons of large numbers of snipers in
       inventory, accuracy degradation, and cost of maintaining the
       optics.
