Just unwrapped the first Husqvarna 33 I've ever seen. Know next to nothing about it. A 32-40 case will chamber, the bore appears to be more or less 30-32 caliber. The under side of the barrel is marked 7.6MM. Working on getting the bore slugged and the chamber figured out. The cleaning rod is missing. Anyone know if it was wood or steel like Remington rolling blocks? For that matter, any idea what it might be chambered in?

Wow! That's a beautiful rifle.

Forgot to address the wiping rod question. They were one piece metal, not wooden.

Here's mine. I also had the half stock but this is the one I really wanted so I kept it. Both of mine were in 9.3x57R(360) and that is also the rifle caliber in my Husky hammer combo. I would bet that yours is in 8x57R(360). The (360) was attached to these cartridges because the German cartridges were based on the British 360 2 1/4 case and they added the (360) to avoid confusion with the cartridges based on their military rounds. The best way to make the brass is to use the last easily available German cartridge that is based on a longer (360) case and that is the 9.3x72R which just needs to be cut to 57mm for the 9.3x57R(360) or cut to 57mm and necked down to 32 (maybe in a 32-40 sizer) and then fire formed. Oh, if you look at my pic you can make out that the ramrod is brass with a steel jag slotted for a patch. Both of mine had very nice triggers and shot well and very pleasantly. In Sweden they were popular for shooting their version of a large grouse from the tops of spruce trees. Somewhere on the web there is a pic of one being used for that. As Otony said, petite and elegant are very good descriptors. I believe I can make out a trace of the original checkering on your pistol grip. You will love it.

Oneatatime, how is your cleaning rod retained? I like the idea of a slotted tip. I have brass slotted tips and brass jags, both threaded 8/32, so easily added to a length of brass or steel rod.

Spent the afternoon making 32-40 Winchester brass and getting ready to fireform. Most likely a waste of effort but when it got started I didn't know anything about 33s being made in 8x57R360. 

The checkering on the pictured rifles is beautiful. Didn't know what I didn't know. Thanks for helping get me going down the right road.

I'm probably going to take my Type 33A 9.5x47R to Greeley in May to sell. It's a nice gun with plenty of case color, but doesn't fit into my collection of Remington Rolling Blocks.

Freebird, that's really helpful information. I won't be shooting capercaillie but I do have steel coyote that's not too hard to sneak up on.

Vall, what do you make 9.5x47R from ?

I believe this round to be based on the 11 mm Mauser military round (shortened), and this is not a very common round to find, even in Europe...

Ah, just re read your post... not the same 9.5X47R than the one I was looking for (9.5 X 47R Stahl)... sorry
