I'm looking at a Mauser Model 96 straight pull bolt action in 30-06. I've always been intrigued by the straight pull concept and own 2 K-31 Schmid-Rubins, a M-95 Steyr, M-10 Ross and a Browning t-bolt.
Does anybody own one of these Mauser straight pulls and can give me a shooting impression? From what little I can find the triggers are a little stiff at about 6lbs, and essentially sealed in a metal case and unadjustable. Accuracy is reported to be quite good in spite of the trigger. They were sold only for a couple of years about 10 years ago and so are relatively scarce.
I guess I looking for someone to talk me into buying one if the price is right!
Thanks!
