Volunteer soldiers do tend to have better morale and combat effectiveness, but when you're facing the threat of a continent spanning empire that *does* utilize universal male conscription, it makes sense to enact limited, selective conscription as the Swedes are doing.

I would hope that situation would result in more volunteers. 

Personally, as someone who did serve of my own free will, I wouldn't want a conscript by my side.
