M 95 cattle killer stutzen
      29/12/08 04:49 AM

get this old pic, colonel august von spieß with M 95 hunting rifle and one of the many cattle killers ( 20-25 I believe) he shot in the hungarian part of Transylvania befor WW 1. the Mannlicher M 95 is hard to find on old pics, most prefer Mauser 98 or the Mannlicher Schönauer. old soldiers like von Spieß take the military rifle. "Outside Romania, it is strongly associated with the novel Dracula, while within Romania and Hungary the region is known for the scenic beauty of its Carpathian landscape and its rich history" and for be the bear country in cental europe, a mix of khyber pass and canada
august von spieß started with a 450 BPE double, I will post this pic in double rifle part:




1914 Franz sodia/ Ferlach catalog with a M 95 mannlicher hunting rifle
for the prices: M 95 130-140 kronen
manlicher schönauer, all model's eqal 225 kronen
german M 88 hunting rifle 128-140 kronen

the mannlicher m 95 was very reasonable compared with a MS and have more or less the same price with M 88 but this action was very cheap to get as military surplus befor WW 1 from the german army.
big enigma is the new "neu" M 95 Exzelsior in 11,15mm for softpoints and strong nitro load, anyone heard about this?




georg roth cartridge catalog, the 8x50 R mannlicher softpoint hunting load is in the middle



hirtenberger have load the 8x50R softpoint till 1990 but then dropped
