Another little bit, after you have drifted the rear sight, try something in 170 gr. bullet wt. My m94 made in 1948 hates 150 gr. bullets and shines with the 170's.

Sounds like the story behind mine. My father got it from an older gentleman in the early 80's. He put six rounds through it and put it away, in a fabric gun sock, in his closet. When I got it the gun sock was rotting away, but the rifle was in pristine shape.
