Same with the Swede, which was supposed to be a cheap truck gun. When it showed up the dealer almost wouldn't turn loose of it.
For some reason the Swedish Mausers shoot more accurately than any other of the old rifles.
Bank vault craftsmanship! And the 6.5 140gr pill is a very good design as far as BC/sectional density.
Got a couple of Swede ‘96’s. Not fired much but beautiful rifles. Very effective with the high ballistic coefficient. Wish I had known more about them when they were plentiful, as I would have bought a dozen.
