Schmidt-Rubin 96/11

[One too many]

Hi all,
I had a good buying experience on a pre 1899 96/11 from Edelweiss Arms.
Matching numbers with the advertised 5/5 bore condition and 5/5 stock. Came with muzzle cap and period or correct sling. Paid a fairly high price, but did get as advertised , quickly and professionally. No FFL.

They are great shooters.
Better than the K31 imo

Just gotta love the swiss

Outstanding LONG range shooting rifles. Much better than the K31 hands down.

I see that I posted a Swiss rifle under Swedish. Perhaps my eyes need checking.
Speaking of which, I really need a scope for any shooting over 50 yards. Can anyone suggest a mount that would not damage the rifle? Suggestions for scopes would be appreciated also. It looks like a scout would be needed, like my Mosin.

Swiss Products has a nice clamp-on scope mount that puts a scope above the receiver, offset slightly to the left. I have one on my k11; it works like a champ.

I just shot mine at a military rifle match. In the prone, I shot a 93-2X, no support or sling.

Let’s not talk about the other positions or rapid fire.
