[QUOTE="Perplexed, post: 2546319, member: 7157"] FSR is the organization that promoted shooting as a sport, both hunting and competition-wise; the rear diopters were made by several different companies, each with their own design. Here's a link to a page that features most/all the sights: [url]http://dutchman.rebooty.com/targetsights.html[/url] Their legality may stem from the fact they were not factory issue, though their use was widespread during FSR-sanctioned competitions. As for recoil, IMHO the Swedish 6.5 "Prickskytte" military cartridge is definitely milder out of a M96 than a M2 ball 30-06 round out of a Springfield M1903A3. I haven't shot a bolt-action chambered for .308, however - maybe someone who's shot both that and the Swedish round can chime in. [/QUOTE]
