dang thats a looker!you say thats the most accurate? what kind of groups? original accs?

Has the front sight been replaced, timberloard?

I have two of the beauties and both had the original sight post which resulted in both guns shooting extremely high at 100 yards. I understand the Swedes designed the gun to zero at 300 yards, normally.

Consequently I replaced the front sight blades and filed them down to zero at 100 yards.

If you need that link for the replacement front sight blade, I still have it.

Good luck with your new girls....they are very special.

It still has the original front sights , and will hit about 12" high , so I lowered my POA and still got 5 rd groups which I could cover with my thumb .

Bayo frog , stripper clips and front sight hood came from Numrich.
Minimal felt recoil , yet it's a hard hitter fersure . A real pleasure to shoot .
I use Sellier & Bellot fmj's
The search is on for a range plate which is supposed to be attached on the butt stock.
