Thanks to all for the kind remarks . I believe by posting pictures it becomes all of our rifle as we share the same love for fine sporting rifles. I have a few " never sell " rifles and the Kongsberg is indeed one of them . CWJ : Yes I also looked at those Kongsberg 393 rifles as they pop up here in the US time to time . They are supposed to be quite accurate but yes I agree are quite a departure from the 98 system
