The bolt runs slick and there’s enough stock comb to let you maintain a consistent sight picture. More recoil than with an M-1 but just remember that you’re shooting a .30-06 with all the power you’ll ever need. Damned old gun shoots!

SWEDE M96

If the Swedes are to be known for something besides their goofy socialist politics and their beautiful women, I would suggest the combination of the M96 Mauser rifle and the 6.5x55 Swedish cartridge. It was everything the Arisakas I tested could have been and weren’t.

Three Model 96s, one Model 38 short rifle and a CG63 arsenal-built, Olympic-type 300-meter competition rifle, all with trigger pulls in the 4-pound range, were tested using 144-grain full metal jacket boattail Swede FFV bullets made in 1954 for use in Olympic competition. The best accuracy was found at very close to 2600 fps from a 29.1 inch barrel. The worst any of them shot was about 1-1/2 MOA; the best was right at half that. Both open and peep rear sights worked well with the aperture type of course being better by far.
