I may just rob the sights off it for one of my Lee Speeds if it is not of much value, any one know much about this model, I don't know the caliber, but says Nitro Proof on the side ?

noooo, you would not dare to do this?

from here I say its a Mannlicher 88 in 8x50R or .315 india and thats what this rifle was build for I suspect.

need the common clip for 8x50R

Yeah, don't do that please!
You don't see very many sporters on the straight pull action (that is what it is, right?)
Give it a good scrub and see how it performs. Looks quite sleek to me and may be a joy to shoot.

Shure an hunting rifle.
The scope looks for me like an Hensoldt Solar I or III.

I would say the distance shown between the end of the prism case and the edge of the adjustment knob to too long for this scope to be a Goerz Pernox 3.5x. I believe it must be an earlier type of Pernox or a Hensoldt Solar of some type.

Obviously a sporting rifle. Did the Austro-Hungarians requisition scoped sporting rifles as was done in Germany?

The mounts look terribly flimsy and very high, even for that time.

I guess I'll add one to the mix. I picked this up recently out of curiosity more than anything. It appealed to me due mainly to the appearance of European handiwork. The seller's pictures unfortunately did not show the spliced in piece of walnut in the butt portion of the stock. It was however, cheap. I did a chamber cast today and determined that it is more than likely 8x50R. As PPU makes softpoint ammunition in 8x56R, I had hoped it was chambered in that caliber, but I was fairly certain prior to the chamber cast that it would most likely be 8x50R. Upon disassembly, it looks as though it was once fitted with double set triggers, but sadly they are now gone and replaced with a military single trigger. The bore is good+ but I have yet to run any solvent through it - just a quick brush and swab.

The Austrians used big game hunters, mainly members of the royalty, and in their experience, they were much more fond of bringing their own rifles then the standard issued rifles, read the book the Sojurner for a novel about Austrian snipers in WW1.
