Dear All
I wanted to share with you photos of my two M. 1910
The detachable stock rifle was proofed in 1924 and imported in the UK by John Dickson & Son (Edinburgh)
The stutzen one was proofed in 1920
Top view: take down is on top and stutzen is below
Right side view: take down is on top and stutzen is below
Left side view: take down is on top and stutzen is below
I had claw mounts recently installed on the stutzen rifle, which was scoped with a x4 Swarovski rifle scope
I plan to hunt with the stutzen in late September this year in the Pyrénées Mountains, where I have an appointment set with an unknown red stag during the rutting season. I'll report on that hunt in time.

Certainly a winning hand there Louis! Do you reload for these or just buy ammunition? As with the .375 2 1/2", can you swap loads or does this round top those loads? 93x64mm

Louis, beautiful rifles, very very nice. Those Mannlichers are hard to beat. You are very lucky, well done.

9,3x64, thank you. I gave-up reloading years ago because of lack of available time due to the nature of my job and I will probably re-start one day when I will have more time. For the time being I buy CIP ammunition from Dorfner (Austria) for all Mannlicher Schoenauer calibres; for all other 'standard' European calibres I buy from RWS.
Waidmannsheil, thank you.
