SR's are over here and held in very high esteem by those that shoot them, given the superb accuracy some of them display I am not surprised.

I think they are the best military surplus rifle of all, particularly the K31's. Piece of cake to scope them too, well the K31's anyway.

The K31 was designed to shoot the GP11 round, it's a match made in heaven that you will not beat.

I always fancied the idea of a Swiss straight pull in 6.5 Swedish - not that such beasts exist

The K31 Bull-pup project rifles are a good bit of kit too

It was tedious work but worth it.

Very nice looking rifle, nice and refined

To be such a perfectionist surely you must have Swiss blood in you ...
Amazing result !! congrats

That looks like the label on the wood stain says water based?
Some ghey-euro mustard colour?

What was in the bath when you soaked it? (& what is the white powder on the stock?)

Have a Swede M96 shotgun with a similar looking stock, that I want to do a renovation job on; once it's freed from Dromia's tlc

True oil? any specific brand?
