Does anyone else shoot an 1896 Swedish Mauser? They're very smooth and accurate rifles. I was hitting the steel at 300 yards at Harvard with one of mine. Even with open sights and old eyes it still works fine. I'm amazed that a cartridge developed in 1891 is so close to the 6.5 Creedmoor. One of my rifles has a sling and thread protector on the muzzle. The other has neither. Does anyone know where I might find those items? I'd get bayonets also if I could find them even though I'm a bit old for a bayonet charge. I don't think I could run that far anymore.
