Oh, what were these Swede 96s twisted?

I think 1-7.

Those Scandinavias were ahead of the curve.

I stand corrected .The twist was 1-7.817,they used a 156 grain round nosed bullet.Thoses babies are super long and most 96 Mausers have a long throat to accommodate that bullet.I think later they went to a 140ish grain bullet.


Its all right to be white!!
Stupidity left unattended will run rampant
Don't argue with stupid people, They will drag you down to their level and then win by experience
