    Two years ago I bought a Husqvarna 9.3x62mm built on a commercial FN 98 action built in 1952

    I mounted by grandfather's old Weaver K4 scope on it, it's from the same era and assembled some loads using the 270gr Speer bullet

    It grouped well and for such an old rifle, especially with random loads and a post and crosshair reticle four power scope
