Schultz & Larsen M60

About the Schultz & Larsen M60

The Schultz & Larsen M60 is a Danish bolt-action hunting rifle produced at the Otterup factory in the early 1960s. Succeeding the company's post-war M5x target-rifle series, it was offered as a sporting arm chambered in popular hunting cartridges including 6.5x55mm Swedish, .30-06 Springfield and 7.62x51mm NATO. Highly regarded among Scandinavian hunters for its accuracy and build quality, the M60 was the first of the M60/M65/M68 hunting-rifle generation and typically sold out shortly after each production run.

Schultz & Larsen's M60 opened the company's celebrated 1960s hunting-rifle era at Otterup; contemporaries recalled that the rifles were so sought-after by Scandinavian hunters that stock was often sold out immediately after production.
