not an M96 swede. it is a larger-ring. which is better.
need pics of the receiver ring, both sides, and top. might be a LR husqvarna.

Looks like an aftermarket trigger/safety. Weaver mounts and rings. Nice rifle. 6mm Rem. is a good combo varmint/medium game round.
No cutout for stripper clips. Could be a commercial action. |

Could be something a gunsmith cobbled together a number of years ago, which isn't necessarily a bad thing so long as he was good.

On the lower receiver, I can make out "STA BARBARA" with a some other letter/digit then "SPAIN"

Santa Barbara commercial action. Good quality. Used to sell them to make custom rifles.

I would have bought it for the right price.
bolt face looks very clean, also a bit big maybe? could be the pics. check headspace, of course.

I would buy that rifle all day long for $300 OTD after I figured out the story on the boltface. That does not look like the proper boltface for 6mm remington. Looks recently cut for a magnum case. Is it yours?
