You can load 120's to 2600, and 140's at 2500 pretty easy, and many do higher. But I wouldn't. I had two nice stock military Swede's. One, a 96 made in 1899, and a Husky 38. They appeared to be able to handle stouter loads but I kept them reasonable. The heavier military models, exhibit nearly no recoil, amazing accuracy, with a round that will do more than some might think it should, even when loaded reasonable. They don't have to be ran hard but if you want to, get a Tikka.
