|  Ammo can be hard to find, and the little beast kicks like an ornery Marine mule! Nice smooth straight-pull action, and very handy size. I used to have the M95M, given by Austro-Hungary to Yugoslavia after WWI as war reparations - it was modified to 8mm Mauser to comply with Yugoslavia's ammo supply for their new Mauser rifles. Boy, that little monster kicked even harder! Puts the Mosin carbines to shame!  The 8X56R is a rimmed cartridge, and requires special clips that will drop out the bottom of the action after the last shot. No clips - ya got a single-shot!
