Title: Re: The Anti-Krag

I had a chance to try out my 7mm Model 1893 Spanish Mauser today at 50 yards, while working at my (Sportsmen's) Club's 'Sighting in Days'.  The rifle easily made a couple of 1 1/4 inch, 5 shot groups, with 175 grain Winchester Hunting ammo.  The (inverted "V") issue front sight blade made sighting a challenge and the groups printed 6 1/2 inches above the point of aim.  I think I will install a better shaped (and taller) Swedish Mauser front blade for improved shooting, in the future.  Otherwise, it is a nice rifle to shoot.
