Maybe something similar like this tibetan rifle:

Could be. Looks like a hole is there for a pivot pin of some sort.

Such two – pronged "bipods" were apparently a common rifle attachments in central Asia, Siberia, Mongolia , Tibet. I have quite often seen such appendices in old pictures of central Asian expeditions. Here is the only photo I found just now: An east-Tibetan "bandit chief" in 1936.

The only detail which makes little pondering is the truth that their magazine fits only for x53R shells.

I have ordered the chamber and sizing die reamer from Mason for the 6.5x54r vostok.

The guy I hunt with has ordered the chamber and sizing die reamer from Mason for the 270x54r.

I predict deer with be killed with both in October 2021.

thats very interesting, never heard someone made a new rifle for this forgotten round. must be something like a rimmed 6,5x55 swedisch.

do you use a common 6,5 mm barrel blank?

This 6,3x53R was after WWII quite usual caliber here in Finland but I have seen too 6,5x53R. It´s very rare but it seems that CH4D makes reloading dies for it.

Would be interesting to know if that is a Finnish made 7x53R restocked in Germany or if some intrepid continental gunsmith wanted a change from the ubiqutous 7x57?

because its for sale in austria it could be the rifle got a new stock in Ferlach once.
it would have been very hard then ( would be hard also today) to find a chamber reamer for the 7x53R so I believe a finnish mosin was used here.

This rifle looks to have action with round fore bridge which is very uncommon with finnish civil Mosins. Maybe it´s a wildcat caliber from 9,3x53R Swiss.

9.3x57 I have one 7x53R Finnish Mosin in my cabinet so I know that caliber quite well. It seems that you did not understand my early comment properly...
