Meanwhile, I'll keep loading my Mauser Werke built 96 with magnum primers, H1000 and 160 gr Hornady RNSPs as, it works very well for me (As have the many, many 94s, 96s, 96/38s and 38s I have owned from when they were sold at Sears out of a barrel at $35.00 each.) This one was given to the Danes (note Krone coin in the stock) by Sweden to "eliminate" Nazis. I added the mount, and an old Schmidt & Bender picket post 6X .
