Looks great!

Funny those wooden classic stocked rifles are now so passe,not plastic stocked plastic straight pull rifles, so no good.

But to those of us, who know, very good,

But maybe in Europe, still way too expensive here in Australia. I need to fill a shipping container full of them, bring them to Australia, cause Albanese to shit himself.

But same with lovely real wood grained furniture. Here and in Europe. Ugly plastic or painted furniture is now the only fashionable thing. Lovely old wood grained furniture is now reportedly very cheap.

Two different gentlemen in France when I visited. Said their houses full of lovely furniture, I would dream of in Australia now near worthless if now sold in France, Lovely furniture.

I could fill a container or two with such lovely furniture.

There are a few here in this Canadian store, but none for $100EU. These are listed in Cdn.$.
I don't know if they sell abroad. In the one I had, on the 96/94 action, I ran 232gr. Norma Vulcan at 2,550fps, 270gr. Speer at 2,300fps, 286gr. Norma at 2,200fps 293gr. TUG at 2,195fps and sized down 300gr. Hornady at 2,175fps.
All of these would shoot groups at or under 1" at 100 meters.
That rifle is now my brother's moose rifle.

I have the same rifle, not even drilled and tapped, in the same cartridge. I bought it pre-covid and I'm quite certain it was not much more than $300.00. They're around $600.00 now. It was just dirty and cleaned up quite nicely. I re-formed some cases from '06 and had to turn the necks a bit so I could shoot cast bullets. It shoots them very well.

I shot sized 225gr. Hornady Spitzers (.063" jackets) 232gr. Norma Alaskan also with .063" thick jackets, Speer's 270gr. bombs, Alaskan 286's, the TUGs and re-sized 300gr. Hornady.
In 1912 or whenever the 9.3x62 came out, the initial ballistics were 286g.r soft and solids at 2,175fps. In 1923 (according to John Taylor) the ballistics for the 9.3x62 were improved to 2,340fps with a 285/6?gr. bullet.
Today, if you have a 9.3x57 on a model 98 action, you can duplicate those 1923 ballistics, in the 9.3x57.
I beat the 1912 9.3x62 ballistics in my 9.3x57 with 15gr. heavier bullets and had 0, that is ZERO case "web" expansion on a full length sized case (actual was .0003" expansion in one place". That, my friends are not only safe loads - they are light loads - for that rifle, a model 94/96.
I did shoot a small moose with mine using a 270gr. Speer at 2,300fps. The impact vel. at 200yards would have been perhaps 1,800fps, maybe a bit more. The bullet went to pieces on the leg bone, but smashed 2" of it, maybe 2 1/2" in diameter - or visavis. The bullet did not penetrate the rib cage, but the moose lay down (dropped). I walked up, while buddy Brad kept an eye on the circling cow, & I planted another one in the top of it's head.
That moose might have been 300 pounds, tops, but it was a big bull calf with 1 1/2" nubs for horns. We *(old guys) 17 years ago, had to cut the gutted carcass it into 2 pieces to load it into his truck.

Around here (central US) the M96 in 9.3 typically sells in the $500-600 range, but with a little luck, negotiating skill, and end-of-the-gun-show timing, $400 wouldn't be out of line. I've not gone after one only because I lucked into a spare 9.3x62 as a project gun.

If the BS Hatred of Guns legislation goes through in SA, my M38 or M96 Mauser 96 will be restocked in its military stock. I still have it,

Then added to my new Military Rifles collection.

I'll have the
Swedish Mauser M38 M96 Mauser 6.5x55.
A Dutch 1893 Steyr (need to check) 6.5x53R
A Greek Mannlicher 6.5x54
A Steyr Hungarian I'm
A British No,1 MkIII SMLE .303 maybe 1923 vintage? All original matching numbers.
Maybe my Colombian police M98 ,30-06 Barrelled action ???

Maybe my Victorian Colonial Police Martini-Cadet .297/250 rifle. Which is also a classifiable antique,

If I'm becoming a collector I may need to buy lots more.
