What, exactly, makes the rifle obsolete? It's still rather capable of reaching out and touching someone at a reasonably long range, right? If it still does the job it was made to do, what's "obsolete" about it? Shall we declare the M1911A "obsolete" too, while we're at it?
BTW, I read that article you linked. The astonishment of those good ole' boy Rednecks at some Rooskie rifle out-shootin' their favorite WW2 American, British, and German "sniper" rifles decidedly leapt off the page. Almost expected spatter on the page from their mind blowing.

Oh wait, I forgot, now I remember what makes the Mosin-Nagant obsolete. It's not BLACK and it's made out of WOOD, not BLACK PLASTIC. Alrighty, then :).

For a battle rifle, it has a very slow rate of fire and the cartridge is overly-powerful for open-sight ranges.
For a sniper rifle, two things. First, the scope sight is low-powered by modern standards. Second, the rifle has to be reloaded with individual cartridges. Of course, one might argue that there are no detachable magazines to lose...
