          Wow, a real beauty. I've been looking for another Swede. I'm very envious. Congratulations....

            That's a real looker. I love the stock.
            I have never been too hot on Mausers but those 6.5s......I have heard good things about them.

                  Very nice OP.
                  Did you find any ammo to feed it? PPU 139gr is pretty good. I bought some 139gr and their Match 120gr. I had better results with the 139gr.

                              One of the best things about of these older guns is the way it allows you to experience a bit of history first hand.
                              People don't like to be meddled with. We tell them what to do, what to think, don't run, don't walk. We're in their homes and in their heads and we haven't the right. We're meddlesome.
