On a previous page, not too far above the 'tea on the train' shot is a photo of three gentlemen standing around some rocks. The one on the right looks to be holding a nearly new Mauser Type B with a magnum action and a solid recoil pad. If this is correct, it must be in 8x75 mm caliber as that was the only Type B made on the magnum action and the only one with a recoil cross bolt as far as I am aware.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong. I spend an inordinate amount of time thinking about the 8x75 rifles and the special range rifle.
