Shot my Chilean mauser in 7x57 at the last match.
All as issued back in 1898 except for a taller front sight :)
Got my new best group: 1.132 and a score of 299-10x (one barely got away, had to probe it LOL).

My goodness. I shot a 100 yd group open sights with my AR yesterday to see how I did. All the shots would fit on my chest but the group wasn't even close to what you've got there. Thats awesome for open sights.

Outstanding Moboost! Aren't the old mausers great? I've got a Chelean mauser but have not spent that much time behind the trigger like I have on my Swedish mausers. The accuracy of the old mausers is difficult for some folks to understand. Many of them, and your Chelean is one of the good ones, are capable of one-hole groups...if you can do your part. But congrats on the outstanding day. See you at the state military bolt action shoot?????
