Not a 'hunting rifle'?
“Although it is not a hunting rifle the Swedish Mauser in 6.5 x 55 is a great rifle.”
Yepper, can say that 3 times over..including a very short one done special for the youngens....
I bought the m38 at a gun show 20 years ago, it looked unused, just perfect...really, not a scratch or ding.
Unfortunately you cannot hunt with a rifle long term and expect it to look unused but it is still 98%.
Used that rifle for my first CMP shoot.
