Note that you have to aim an instant kill spell to actually hit with it.
Anyway, as far as this is concerned, it all comes down to who has the mightier plot shield.
Are we talking Orochimaru when he has the use of his arms or without them?
I'm going with Orochimaru cause Voldemort is a pretty pathetic loser of a villain. Seriously, Orochimaru is a ninja so he's keen on stealth killing and deception than would take out Old Man V before he could get a word off of his death spell. Also, most of Orochimaru's techniques are designed to kill whereas Old V has one. Also, Voldemort could probably be permanetly taken down by Orichimaru's "soul transfer" jutsu as that looks to do bad things to the souls of it's victims.
Also, Orochimaru has more henchman than you can wave a stick at. He has several bases scattered across the continent and Kabuto is actually more competent than anything Old V has produced thus far.

Current Mood: And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe. Maybe this year will be better than the last. I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself. To hold on to these moments as they pass...
Orochimaru can always use shadow clones for any spells thrown at it and he can pull out a sword from his tonge...which itself is a snake! And can shock Voldemort enough to reveal that (SPOILER)HE IS A SHE (or atleast he can be) lol

I am gonna say Voldemort. I don't even have a damn idea who Orochimaru is.
Loki: I have an army.
Stark: We have a HULK!

hmmmm....well, with out his wand, Voldemort is powerless. Orochimaru could probobly snap it, easy. After that, Orichimaru could kill him with the nasty torture way (by slowly tightening his tongue around Voldemort's neck while ripping his brains out through his nose). Or, with a powerful little jutsu that will kill him fast. Orichimaru has alot of those...
But judging by what I just wrote, I think that Orichimaru would win.
Orichimaru whoever he is, is a drawn figure while Voldemort exists in our own world and is as set a realistic deformed human being and by the fact that Voldy can simply erase him or tear him apart on paper Voldemort wins.

PRpchimaru hands down. He would speed his way away from any spell. And of course he could just summon a huge snake and squash "he who must not be named"
Fat kids are harder to Kidnap.
Technically wizards in the Harry Potter books can use magic without their wands, it's just less focused that it is with a wand.
But there is, of course, the problem pointed out already that the instant-kill spell would have to hit. Usually when a ninja in Naruto gets hit by something it's either a clone or a replacement technique.
Orochimaru would win hands down just because of his speed; wizards in the Harry Potter series seem to just rely on magic, so they probably aren't physically capable of dodging anything that a ninja like Orochimaru could throw at them (particularly after dying a couple of times). The only conditions by which Voldemort would be likely to win is if he had either a time freezing spell or a second basilisk up his sleeve.
Voldemort has the ability to speak to and command snakes. My bet says that if they ever crossed paths they would probably strike a deal and team up.
