1903 what?

Springfield? (Zeroed at 547 yards, frames broke if you looked at them sideways)

Ross? (rare and expensive)

Mannlicher? (Steyr contract for Bulgaria: straight-pulls in 8x50R)

Mannlicher-Schoenauer? (Steyr contract for Greece, 6.5x53MS)

I'm going to assume he means Springfield. Have you tried www.milsurps.com? Lots of good info on that forum!

 

[smellie]

Yes, some VERY good people on that site. Also one FINE library for free download.

Nice thing is that a couple of the best are also HERE.

Good luck, friend!
