First 5 rounds for me out of this rifle firing PPU 139 gr SP BT went into just over 2.5" at 100 yds. The rest (5 more 5 shot groups) were all under 2".

That is a very clean rifle. Does the bore look as good as the rest of the rifle? Nice find, how much was this one?
 
Nice!

The Swedes sure knew how to make a beautiful (and accurate) rifle.
 
The model 96 was one of my first Mil Surps and one of my favorites when I was younger and my ey sight was better. Now with age creeping up there I shot my 41B sniper. Great looking rifle buy the way.
