It worked on all 3 rifles, they are original military rifles. Very smooth actions. Didn't know about this trick until now.

This is done on an empty chamber with empty magazine. The precisely machined Austrian MS action (particularly pre WW2), handle centered on bolt (balance), absence of drag with Schoenauer magazine combine to make the MS incredibly smooth.
