Just a terrible suspicion came to my mind: Perhaps the barrel is still in 8x57I, but the muzzle is backbored to about 11 mm. Doing this was a common practice to salvage a barrel eith a worn out muzzle, but preserving the original front sight base. The seller of the rifle may have looked at the muzzle only and guessed at "about 11 mm". |
