Hi GG375,
as a real old Mannlicher Schönauer fan I will give you and all other M.Sch.owners some information.
The first rifle was the so called model 1903 Stutzen (full stock) and was in 6,5x54 M.Sch.with a 450mm barrel.Few years later they started with the calibers 8x56, 9x56 and 9,5x57, but with 500mm barrels.All these rifles you can find in full stock and half stock version and also in take down.
After 1930 Mannlicher started with new models with 600mm barrels in half and full stock version in the following calibers :7x57, 7x64, .30-06, 8x60 Magnum, 9,3x62 and 10,75x68.
After WWII in year 1950 Mannlicher startet with new calibers like 6,5x54, 7x57, 7x64, 8x57 JS, 9,3x62,.257 Roberts, .270 Win.and .30-06.from 1950 all M.Sch.have been produced with metric threads-before all M.Sch had only Whitworth treads.So you can find out how old the rifle is.
In 1958 new Magnum types have been introduced as 6x5x68, 8x68S and .458 Win.Mag.
hopefully everybody can find an answer for his questions
