That is a beautiful rifle and looked like great fun to experiment with. My Great-Grandad was shot with a German Mauser in 1916, the bullet went through his front teeth, down through his tongue and throat, into the back of his neck and was extracted from his right shoulder! He was a tough old bloke, he didn't pop his clogs until 1970!

Youre probably having so many issues with elevation because the sights on the swedish mausers are made for the heavier round nosed bullets they started using in 1894. When they (finally) switched to a 142/3gr spitzer in 1941, they never made new sights for the standard rifles - instead, they would rivet a range plate into the stock (usually next to the brass disk) that shows you how high/low to aim to account for the new cartridge.

Many of the older rifes did have their sights re-calibrated for the spitzer, there is a mark (its an F or an N from memory) that denote recalibrated for spitzer.That being said the load/pill they ran is not something available of the shelf afaik so you are always going to have to use some ammount of hold over/under and Kentucky windage! I love my Swedes, I have 2, but the sights re the worst ive come across! Stupidly long range zero, I think my m96 shoots about 400m on its lowest setting with modern pills and loads, essentially useless! Ive got a brownells peep on it these days, i can zero at whatever i like ad get a much better sight picture.I have a later short rifle thats not as bad, but still not very usable! I much preffer the sights on my no1mk3!

Back in the 1960 - 63 period I built three 6.5 x 55's. One on a Win Mdl 70, Rem 700 'n' a Savage 110 with some old 6.5 bull barrels the family had laying around. My uncles told me I was crazy using 26" barrels for a deer rifle in the Vermont woods. Each of the rifles harvested deer and bear before I went to South Vietnam.

I live in New Hampshire and we really live in an area where terrain is quite different than other places. In one area you could be walking along on nothing but rock ledge, and 100 yards later be flat and thin as can be, then another 100 yards it could change and be crazy thick and very rough country. Depends on where your gonna be and if you know the terrain. My personal opinion, for our neck of the woods anyway either the remington 788 in 30-30 or the savage 340 30-30 bolt guns are the best options ESSPECIALLY if you hand load.

I built 2 identical hunting rifles (one for me, one for my wife) and they are both sub 1/2 MOA with my hand loads.

Guys... guys... think about it a moment. You don't have to physically alter your sights, you don't need a specific load. There are two simple ways that you can have a nice 6 o'clock hold on that 550 yard/meter (whatever) gong and hit it consistently. On the battlefield, the enemy does not place themselves at 100 meter intervals for the convenience of your sight settings - they are at random distances and the Swedish (German, Russian, etc.) military knew this. Just think about it for a moment and you'll see how to use your unmodified m/96B with the ammo you've got and also be able to have a 6 o'clock hold on the gong. No need to aim way low in the grass or anywhere else.

Swedes are amazing rifles. I had several in the past... one was a magnificent 96 - all matching and just beautiful wood excellent condition. Alas, I let them get away. But.... I just found a 96/38 on gunbroker of all places = most all matching serials, and for $550 so I ordered it. Everything looks really good in the pics/description so hoping for a good one. It has the original sights, not updated to the spitzer round but I handload, so I can just load up milspec 160 grain loads which should match up to the sights. Looks like it's either S&B factory 131 grain loads or handload. You can probably find other factory loads but the prices are nuts... thanks for the vid! I enjoyed it.

Hello. I have an M96 from 1913 Gustav...I noticed at 200 yards I was holding WAY under the bullseye - maybe 10-12 inches AT LEAST - obviously the sight only go down to 300 meters...but I was amazed how low I needed to hold. Luckily I had a buddy spotting for me and after about 5 shots I had POA figured and was placing shots (almost all of them - 30ish) within roughly a 10in circle. I have a few questions for you: 1. How many shots is too many, shooting every 30 seconds, as the barrel was getting pretty hot. 2. What few rounds does yours like? I was shooting SB 131 & 140 grain and PPU 139gr & 120gr...thoughts?

I presently own a m96 manufactured in 1899 and has the original disk, all original. I previously owned a model 33/55 and it was all original except for the front sight. Someone had done away with with the military blade and replaced it with a more modern at some point. Was easier to hit small targets at 200 and 300 yards.

Have two M38, one milspec, one fully sported. The sight issue with your M96 is two fold. 1) sights are regulated for the RN 162 grain ball load. When Sweden adopted tge 142 grain spitzer they did not correct the sights but pasted a correction table to the stock. Hope you can read Swedish. 2) the twist rate in the barrel is optimized for the longer and heavier bullet. Shooting 140 gr bullets as I think you are results in a very slightly unstable projectile in flight. Not really an issue inside 300 yards, but more significant at range. The M94/M96/M38 will not shoot the lighter 6.5 bullets popular in the 6.5 creedmore because of the twist issue. The 123 grain varmint bullets keyhole from mine at 50 yards. Go to a 160 grain bullet like a match king and you will drill a hole in your gong.

Very common Rifle here in Australia, there are 4 Gun shops in my town and each of them have at least 3 on the shelves. In the '80s there was a company doing "sporter" versions here, They put them in a reasonable stock, removed the iron sights, drilled and tapped them and mounted a 4x32 Nikko Stirling 'scope on them and sold them for about $200. You can also get Timney triggers and low swing safeties for them. Barnes are doing some fantastic projectiles in this calibre now, and they are a piece of cake to reload. My cousin and i have competitions with each other shooting bunnys with them, He's winning at the moment with a hit at 666 measured Meters! (The Devils shot :-) ) P.S. Don't let anyone tell you the receivers are made of "soft metal", they are as good as, and some times better than many Rifles made at that time.

A friend of mine was/is a hardcore air rifle shooter, when somebody told him to try his luck with a fire arm. So he bought a mint condition M96 for €250,- and learned to hand load accurate ammo. After a year, a friend signed him in for a 300, 500 and 600 yard Bisley style match. He was shocked (he only shot 100 meters), but learned the bullet drop and working with the sights. He won the 500 and 600 meters that day... Keep in mind that Bisley style is only 12 shots per distance and the best 10 counts. Here in Holland, all rifles that are not 5,56 mm are competing in the 'Veteran' class. The only rifles that are capable of winning these matches are the K31, 1903A3 and the M96. Oh, and occasionally an old Dutch AR10.

Likely the reason you're off is that it's set at a certain range with the front sight you have, for the M41 spitzer ammo, while the range settings on the backsite are unchanged and set for the 156 grain roundnosed ball that was issued before. There's range conversion stickers with holdover/under for the varying ranges that were issued to troops and stuck upside to the stock to help them dope the ranges. You are shooting closer to M41 spec ammo, not accountign for the differing trajectory/unmatched front site height and using the original range settings---

The Söderin diopter is adjustable to 600m. They significantly improve the shootability and adjustability especially for longer range and sporting applications. I think hitting that gong at 600 yards with the diopter would have been a breeze with that diopter in the rifle. The inherent accuracy is most certainly there. Some people shoot these rifles at 1000 yards.

In Holland, most 100 meter ranges are indoor and so are the service rifle matches shot at 100 meters. Because standard loads heat up the barrel very fast, and mirage blocks the sight view, serious competition shooters download their ammo. They use 20 grains of faster burning powder. M96's are know to win almost every veteran rifle class match. Together with the 1903A3. For military rifle class, you need an AR15 or SIG Stg90 to win a match.

Love my Swede . It's a 96 Gustav . It's been "sporterized" with a ramline stock and a lil bolt work. To this day probably my most accurate rifle at range . Best part you can shoot it all day with no strawberries.

i find my M96 produces heat-induced mirage over the front post quicker than the K98K and other old-school rifles (Lee-Enfield, K31, Mosin etc). Not sure if this is due to the barrel heating up faster (more surface contact area of that long slim projectile) or just the front post design

Thanks for the great review. Have a CZ 557 6.5x55 and it is a great shooter. Absolutely love military surplus. IMHO barrel length, although providing more accuracy, many Mausers near 30" painful to tote around the Montana backcountry.

Funny Story, We Europeans "exchanged" (more like got forced upon) the ability to self-protection and gave that Power to the state. Also funny is the piss poor Job our states are doing at what they promised. Later they wonder why people are angry. Anyways, remember that Pessimism and Defeatism are never an Option.

Luckily we are still one of the most armed people on earth here in sweden, but they are sure trying hard to restrict it. Rifles like the benelli MR1 is getting denied due to appearence while the BAR match or an AR15 is still allowed. Nothing makes sense
