1895 Steyr Short Rifle

I was roaming the racks in a nice gun shop with lots of military arms and spotted this rifle. Seems it was pushed aside into a dark corner and was covered with grease. It took about a half dozen patches to get a lot of grease out of the bore. Turns out this rifle was all matching with a decent bore and the price was very cheap. The shop did not have any 8X56mm ammo, but Graf & Sons sells it. Now all I need are a few clips and I will be good to go. Take care...
Joe
