Ever tried the Swedish M/96? I have to admit I'm partial to these, but they are extremely smooth and very accurate. I have shot 3"-4" groups at 100 yards with one of mine, probably a lot of luck involved but still not a coincidence. A better shot could probably do some serious damage with it. Got a 2" 3-shot group once, almost made me want to frame the target and hang it on the wall.

Seems like your grandmother thought the fabric was the highly prized trophy, the rifles were just there to have something to roll it up on.
