Curious, the chamber also. I don't recall seeing a DR in .280 Ross; certainly not a German one. One must wonder why it wasn't chambered for the .280NE if emulating the British chambers. The Germans never did shy away from rimless extraction.

For a German chamber, the 7x57R would have been the candidate. Also the 7x65R or the 7x75R Vom Hofe Super Express would be appropriate, but both those two cartridges came on the scene well after this rifle was made.

Quite an English flair in the chamber, but the rifle is pure German in every other respect. Interesting to say the least!
