OK, some more information:
Was at the range today.
The muzzel shows some cleaning rod wear, so BT bullets did not group at all.
Tha I switched to my handload copy of teh finn D-Cartridge, BINGO!
A rather nice 10 shot group, as expected about 5 inches too high.

Next time I will fix bayonett and try some S-Cartridges.

Was your point of aim where the x is and the rounds hit where they did? Must not have been the actual point of aim for the results you achieved. My M91's will do something like you discribe, but not as the picture suggests, which would be something much more than five inches above point of aim.

Sorry Niner, sometimes I can not switch my brain between metric and inch type measurements
It is more like 12" too high ofcourse!!!!!!!!!!
4" high would be right, hold at 6 and hit the bull
Some of my finn M91 will shoot POA up to 4" high, but most 8 to 10 high with the lowest setting(200m in most cases)
Another update:
Seems like the stamp on the right hand side of the barrel makes this one a Serbian M91
Chris
Thanks Chris

I was wondering if I was just missing something.

Fantastic find Chris, congratulations.
Is it possible to get a close up picture of the Serbian stamp????
I'd appreciate it.
Met vriendelijke groet,
