        <![CDATA[  


I just returned from Camp Perry. I started practicing this year with my M96. It is a sweet shooting rifle with SMK and Varget. I took home a gold medal!!!
Seven out of the top ten rifles were Swedes. There were lots of K31 Swiss entered. The vintage match is lots of fun.

			<description><![CDATA[ I came in 30th out of 330. I shot a 96-3 slow prone, 92-1 prone rapid and an 87 offhand = 275-4. The gold medals score started at 275, I just made it.
<br>
<br>
I use an extended modern sling.
<br>
<br>
I&#39;ve been using Winchester brass. I recently found out that US made brass for the 6.5x55 is under size, made from 30.06 blanks. I just ordered some Norma
brass, it is .006-.008&quot; larger at the base. I&#39;m looking to get better results out of this new brass.

			<description><![CDATA[ My favorite Swede has sterling silver medal embedded on the stock and some Swedish writing. I had it translated and it said,&quot;Youth shooting match, 1st
place&quot;. And it is still an extremely accurate rifle. I shot it in my local gun club military bolt action matches for a while and won two of the matches.
My best score out of a possible 300 at 100 yards is 298 8X. I was wondering what your scores were at the national match and how they were scored? jim ]]></description>

<br>
<br>
How about some more details like your scores for each of the stages?  Did you use an original Swedish sling, or something else? ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Awesome shooting, my hat is off to you and your accomplishment. I too would love to go to Camp Perry some day. One of my clients has been the range officer for
the high power match the past couple of years. I keep threatening to hide in his suit case. Once again, Great Shooting !!!

			<description><![CDATA[ Superb!!! Again Congratulations!
<br>
<br>
I have your rifles brother, an 1913 CG with just a couple of thousand higher serial number. Not as nice a yours, but a good shooter also. Doubt that I&#39;m as
good a shooter as the guy who shoots yours though!
<br>
<br>
Thanks for sharing you load info and the detail pictures. You have much to be proud of there!!! ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ We shoot at 200 yards on the SR target all stages, Standing, prone and prone rapid. I used Sierra Match Kings 140 grn with 35.8 grains of Varget, Winchester
brass and CCI primers. The rifle is all matching and in very good condition.

			<description><![CDATA[ Congratulations on your medal. I have always wanted to go to Camp Perry, maybe one day. It would be great to see some additional pictures of your rifle. What
was the range you shot at....200 or 300 yards?

			<description><![CDATA[ Yes, congratulations zomby woof!!
<br>
<br>
Last year the Swedes placed up at the top. Weighing-in how few Swedish Mausers there were, they did better than the K31s!!
<br>
<br>
Excellent job.

<br>
<br>
Yep, them Swedes are tough to beat for accuracy, partly due to the fine 6.5 x 55mm round that they shoot and partly due to the Swede&#39;s superior
craftsmanship and materials.
<br>
<br>
Want to tell us the specifics on your winning rifle and loads? More pictures, close-up of receiver ring markings stock discs and other pertinent details are
generally well appreciated here! How about a close-up of that medal too?
