Yes , the hole pattern looks like what we see on other Swedish snipers . Pretty good chance it is an ex-M41 sniper .

Have been informed..bolt should be blued..mine is not. have seen both. any ideas please..Roy

The m/41B has a blued bolt, the m/41 has a bolt left in white(silver).
Based on your first picture it looks like that your rifle had what some of us call a type 1 short side rail scope base mounted.
The type 1 had a curved nose, you can see the curve as an imprint on your receiver. Which means the rifle you have looks like a m/41 like Swede mentioned. That means that the bolt and the bolt parts should be silver.

 

[swede]

box is correct , your bolt should be white metal .
