Just wondering, has anyone done much reloading for the Swiss Arms rifles? I know they're not bolts, but I'm really curious to know what kind of groups can be achieved if a little time is put into working up a good load. Is there a particular recipe that tends to work well with these that would be a good starting point?

I keep reading that they're "accurate", but I haven't seen many groups posted!

Also, is either the 1:7 or 1:10 barrel more accurate than the other?
 
Test targets are provided with all 1 in 10" rifles. The acceptance standard is 10 shots in an 11cm square at 300m. While this is not benchrest accuracy by any standard it is pretty good for a service rifle using service ammo.
 
Here's how mine shoots.

What is the max OAL for the magazine?
I have a 1:7 Classic Green on the way, I just want to get some loads ready so I have somethng to shoot when it arrives.

Thanks

Sorry no Swiss at the Somme July 1 ,1916. They were in the landing craft at Juno, June 6 1944? Sicily, Ortona, North Atlantic. Hill 677 Korea 1951? Where is the Swiss army. When did they fight. Who did they fight. Are not the Swiss the worlds bankers and therefore off limits to anyone? This is where Canada was in the 2oth century. Are not the Swiss the world's bankers and therefore off limits to everyone? Who helped bring an end to nazism, Cold War communism. Anyhow sorry i posted this. Its politics that is not to be discussed on these forums.

RTS. What is your problem old timer?
Does a nation not have the right to remain neutral in your eyes?
Do you have a problem with Sweden as well since they were not in WW1 either?
Switzerland has not fought since 1847 and they aim to keep it that way,
If you want peace plan for war.
You want to blame an entire nation because of banking practices by certain banks during WW2?
That was 66 years ago by the way, give it a rest.

WOW, RTS, Dude your a ####!
Canadians Kicked some A** at both all those battles and events but lay opff the Swiss man what did they ever do to you, or anyone for that matter?
If you want peace plan for war. And they do and that is why no one would even consider messing with the Swiss, they have the whole country defended, there is enough radiation proof bunkers is Switzerland to hold the whole country+ 15%. They are more prepared for war than any other nation and as a result have not had to engage in a conflict in a very long time, would you not want the same for your children?
