He described the killings in detail during an eight-hour trip to the island, prosecutor Paal-Fredrik Hjort Kraby said. "The suspect showed he wasn't emotionally unaffected by being back at Utøya … but didn't show any remorse," he added.
Images of the reconstruction published in the Norwegian daily VG show Breivik pretending to fire shots into the water where panicked teenagers had tried to escape on 22 July.
The hearing took place amid a security operation that aimed to avoid escape attempts by Breivik and protect him against potential avengers.
Breivik's lawyer said he has admitted to the attacks, but denies criminal guilt because he believes the massacre was necessary to save Norway and Europe from Muslims, and to punish politicians who have embraced multiculturalism.
Parts of the re-enactment were recorded and broadcast by the Norwegian media.
Police prosecutor Paal-Fredrik Hjort Kraby told Norwegian broadcaster NRK that Breivik was calm, cooperative and in control of whatever emotions he might have felt returning to the site of the crime.
"The suspect showed he was not unmoved by being back on Uyoya," Kraby said. "But he did not show any remorse for his actions."
Breivik has admitted to planning and committing the attack on Utoya, as well as the bomb attack a few hours prior that killed eight people in Oslo. His 1,500-page manifesto (large parts of which were plagiarized from the Unabomber's manifesto), posted on the Internet a few hours before the attacks, declared that his attacks were a declaration of war on Norwegian multiculturalism.
Breivik attacked Utoya because it was hosting a camp organized by the youth wing of the Labor party, Norway's governing coalition. The Labor party is pro-immigrant and pro-multicultural -- among the nearly 600 participants of the camp were children of immigrants who were interested in launching political careers.
