The 1640 action does have a good position into days highly specialised custom gunmakers market as they are highly desirable for the guy that wants the best in a sheep rifle and demands the reliability of a controlled feed action. The actions that replaced the 1640 was designed by Gunnar Larsson in 1965 and did not go into production until 1967 this was the Model 1900 and as nice as this NEW action is, it could not be mistaken for a Mauser action as it is a push feed action.
Remember that the receiver ring on the Model 98 is 1.3' and these on the 1640 is 1.290'. Even though sheep do not need the type of bullet that Woodleigh makes, the safety provided by them would add a degree of reliability to the hunter in need of extended coverage.It is a long and vary interesting history and far to long for me to try and improve on the work of Stuart Otteson. I explained to them that a good deal of the time sheep hunters in our Alaska are hunting in country that has grizzly bear. It was for this reason of the best rifles and ctgs for the sheep hunter, that I asked Woodleigh to bring out bullets in 6.5mm which they did. It is a long and vary interesting history and far to long for me to try and improve on the work of Stuart Otteson.

I think 1640 was the first one for which Husky made their own Mauser action.
The Huskies made in Sweden are fine rifles, starting from the top notch steel they used. I was about to correct the 'Made in Finland' piece of information too. Thanks Tankspridd, excellent summary of the Husqvarna rifle production.
