a Waldläufer in 12/70 and 22 lr from Michelitsch, Ferlach. in 2008 it get a Swarovski 3-9x36, a new blueing for the barrels and new side plates because the old ones are lost.
the selector is visible on the right side plate.
very tastful engraving and I hope it comes into the hands of a good craftsman how is able to restore it so good as possible.

Lancaster,

A question, or for anyone that can answer it, how accurate is the rifle barrel, the .22, in a gun like this? In general, obviously not for any particular rifle. Are these .22's capable of very good accuracy? Average? Or only a close range sort of proposition?

Thanks to anyone whom can comment.

the greifelt drilling have this lever on the left side and a slide on the stock wrist.


because a common drilling have the greener safety where the lever is one can assume that this lever is also the safety and the slide on the wrist activate the rifle barrel.
but thinking that the drilling hanging on your back, maybe together with a rucksack, the chance is very high that some movement disengage the safety unlike the greener safety where is some protection.
till someone know it better I can only believe that the lever activate the rifle barrel.

nitrox, I hear that you would like to have a waldläufer!
its not recommanded to shoot game bigger like rabbits or birds and not on more that 50-80 meter with a 22 lr.
I had never a waldläufer in my hands but think that accuracy will be good enough for such hunting situations. of course, its not a target rifle!

lancaster,

Years ago I had a drilling in 16/16/8x57JR marked "Herman Schneider, Zella Mehlis" which had the same lever as the one you mention. The lever is indeed the safety. This particular lever actually lifts the hammers off the sears and provides a positive block of the hammers.

In my TJF Schienen Drilling in 22 WRM ,barrel length 68 cm. The accuracy is very good About 1.5 cm between 2 shots at a 100 meters. That is on a day with no wind of course. The most precise round in my driling is CCI 30 grain TNT ,fun on crows.
On Grouse and Capercaillie I prefer to use a 40 grain bullet.
