I have a shortened barrel M96 Swede sporter. While it is certainly not a one hole shooter at 100yards, it is accurate and capable of less than 1" groups when I do my job. I also had a sporter M94 Swede with about a 17" long barrel. Company that imported it years ago, had put about a 1 1/2" extension on the original barrel to make it legal to sell back then. Had a good bore in it and the rifle consistenly shot under a 1 1/2" 100 yard group. Did watch a guy at our range one day with a sporter shortened barrel Swede, shooting at 200 yard target. LOL, guy brought in target and I took a look at it. Egads, guy was shooting quarter size goups with his Swede.
