Found at the recent Kassel gunshow: An English Mauser rifle in .375 rimless Nitro Express aka 9.5x57 Mannlicher – Schoenauer. Long 26" barrel. DWM M98 action. London proof marks. Not marked by a maker or dealer. Two folding leaves express sight, marked 200 and 300. Slim British style stock without cheekpiece, with horn foreend tip and steel buttplate. Flat top checkering. I just cleaned it a bit and installed one of my "Ersatz –Sportarget" peep sights http://forums.nitroexpress.com/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=151111&an=0&page=1#Post151111
Will be interesting to see how the ballisics from the 26" barrel compare to those from the 20" barrel of my M 1910 Mannlicher – Schoenauer. Any comments, please?
Now THAT would mak4e a great all round hunting rifle for NA.
