I would say its a 8x60 (I bore so not 8x60S)
you can load it with a 8x57IS die set. brass can be made by using 30 06 cases or buy PRVI 8x60S cases.

what I found on your pics was this

H K remind me allways on Heinrich Krieghoff/Suhl, well the sign between was not looking like an anchor but the lower part was grind off.
take a look at this Krieghoff Parabellum

I never notice bevor the Krieghoff sign was a combination of an anchor with a sword.
not doubt this Mauser rifle was made by Krieghoff in Suhl ... but for Bernal Arms?
