The CROWN - crown/N proofmarks were the standard German smokeless proofs for a proofload using the "4000 atm special proof powder". As this proof was used for many chamberings pre-WW1, it tells nothing about caliber.
Hello kuduae,
thanks for the reply.
Would you know if Johann Peterlongo (or his company) was building sporters "after" WWI, using prewar Mauser actions as a basis for their custom rifles?
I'm told the rifle has shipped. I might have the answer as to caliber in the next day or so.
