A dealer here is advertising three Oberndorf Type B Mausers in EXC condition for prices between $2500 and $3000 (9x57, 8x60 and 9.3x62)so the auction pricing is probably pretty good.

If one could get a good supply of cases it would be a nice original rifle to play around with using cast bullets and 350-400gr jacketed. If I didn't already have one I would be in the running.
