I have had a few of the Husqvarna Mausers ( none as nice as yours) and have found all were well adjusted working type weapons.The wood on the rifles i owned was quite plain Beech . I am guessing that Husqvarna fitted their rifles with different kinds of wood. Of course 9.3x62 is a most excellent caliber and having a Husqvarna in any of the 9.3's is something to be proud of.
