One of, if not my favorite Sig pistol, the P229, without the rail on the dust cover, made in Germany. A true .40 SW weapon.

Gorgeous.
Question: Are you able to find factory-loaded cartridges for the 9x57㎜? The other day I came upon a similar Husqvarna (albeit in worse shape) whilst searching for a 9.3x63㎜ hunting rifle on Gunbroker, so just I am curious. Thank you.

Factory loads are going to be hard to find but here is a great loading instructional. I will try to get as close to this load as possible though the bullet mfg Choice is not that important I believe.Gorgeous.

No, I misread your post to be 9x57㎜, when you wrote 9.3x57㎜. My mistake.
(As to what I was looking for on Gunbroker, something in the 9.3x62㎜ Mauser.

Yes, you should find loads for that rifle caliber but make sure the pressures are suitable for the age of the rifle you select.No, I misread your post to be 9x57㎜, when you wrote 9.3x57㎜. My mistake.

Thanks@Phantom Man. Being brass framed it can't be loaded very hot, 25 grains of powder is pretty much the max. But it should be an enjoyable shooter.

Nice rifles, Phantom Man.
They remind me of a very good movie called The Lighthorsemen.

Need to get a Lithgow eventually. I already have a Lithgow bayonet for some reason. I put the blade before the horse.

Sometimes it works out that way. I have no bayonets for these but I'm broke so it's time to be happy with what I have...

If you enjoy was movies of the type like Gallipoli, you will like this one. Maybe even more.
The Lighthorsemen is based on a true story and all the characters were real people.
I'm pretty sure you won't be sorry.
