Re: Mannlicher 8x60 Magnum Question

kcordell,

this catalog is clearly "postwar" - look at the US calibers, e.g. .243 Win.
By that time, the "J" bore was phased out in Europe.

Your rifle was made in the 1920s, marked 8x60 Magnum.
It is possible that the term "Magnum" also implied an "S" barrel - but personally I would not trust this.
The safest and easiest way is to slug the bore and measure what you have.
