your 1st

I've had two 6.5 MM rifles. One was a 1903 Mannlicher-Schoenaur in 6.5x54. Some low life stole from my truck in Elko Nevada coming home from a deer hunt. The was an M38 Swedish Mauser custom I built. I took it out into the desert to test fire at a place where others shoot. Guy wanted that rifle badly. Gave me $500 and a Remington 600 Mohawk for it. Sometime I think about that rifle and wonder if it would have been a good one. I would love to find another 1903 Mannlicher though. Found a good substitute. A Ruger M77 RSI that handled exactly like the Mannlicher.
