An interesting point on the Anschuetz rifle is the late proof date-1943.
Also the special sign "Kupfermantel" - copperjacket, normally bore diameter was made deeper for lead bullets.



As the rifle shows the 1940 - 1945 Eagle/I = Instandsetzungsbeschuss = reproof, it was merely reprooofed for the then current 8.15 x46R smokeless factory load. The caliber marking and the IG Anschütz stamp are also in accordance with the 1940 proof law. IMHO a much older rifle, originally proofed for black and lead only, was submitted to the proofhouse in 1943 by IG Anschütz, Zella-Mehlis. I have seen several 8.15x46R rifles reproofed after 1940.
Daryl, the 8.15x46R case is not based on the M71 Mauser. It's based on a shortened .360 case. I have successfully made, like many others, 8.15x46R cases from .30-30 brass, shortened and resized.
