Mine is a tack driver. Don't shoot it as much as I used to but when I do it's woody time. -178S |
That is one fine looking rifle. I have a friend in the UK that shoots 900 meter contests and 1100 meter international with his and wins most of the time using the 139g Senecar and RL22. He let me shoot it at Bisley and I couldn't wait to get home and buy one.

Nice! I used to have one from the same year but had to sell it. Still regretting doing that but now I have 2. Made in 1909 and 1911... and still looking for more.

Reloaders
I have a good load for the swede. 44.5gr of 4350 IMR on a 140 Nosler. OAL should be in the 3.130 range. It will shoot real good at 1,000 yards. I use a scope, but if you flip the sight up and bring it down to the bottom that was a 1,000 yards on my rifle using PMC ammo

Nice birch stock on that rifle!!. The Swede's used Birch, Elm ,Maple and a few different types of Walnut to make stocks. They can be real gems!!
Here's a few pics of a Maple stocked M/96 http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w...h/IMG_5920.jpg http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w...h/IMG_5900.jpg http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w...h/IMG_5882.jpg http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w...h/24e600b5.jpg http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w...h/33e8b213.jpg |
Nice Swede, does it shoot as well as it looks?
