they really are a great rifle aren't they.
try that load of 44 gn reloader 22 , 142 match kings , 3.100 coal , fed 210 primers. it is a good accuracy load, point of aim might be different to the standard sights, but you can get a new front sight blade from "liberty tree" over ebay. they also have front sight hoods as well. i had no problems with buying these parts from the USA, and a mate of mine just got his enfeild front sight protector from them as well . just file and adjust the replacement front blade to suit, and put the original away for safe keeping. another trick i found is the earlier m96 gustaf has a lighter trigger than the later husky. i put a early trigger and spring assembly in mine and made it more pleasant to shoot . i may be mistaken, but from what i've seen , the gustafs have every part on the rifle serial numbered. even the cleaning rod. the later husky's don't have all parts numbered, just the main bits. the tilted crown stamp also indicates a husky part. the upright crown means it's gustaf. (not to be confused with rifles made by his brother ,karl gustav
). look for crown stamps on the bottom of the stock , just in front of the rear sling mount. it may give you a idea how many times it's been through the armourers . i had a m96 that had three such stamps . enjoy your swede and it's accuracy and feel pity for those poor enfield shooters
DISCLAIMER , all info i've given is in a casual "off the top of my head" manner. if it's wrong i appologise . all hate mail over the enfield comment can be addressed to , bigrichdoesntcare.com.au . have a wonderful day one and all
