hello promo, very nice bore gun! the owner than must be a very conservative hunter in a time when everyone want a 8 mm. not made for hunting roe deer or chamois maybe for the big red deer and boars in siebenbügen, brown bear also.

there is a difference between britsh paradox or full rifled guns and german/austrian/swedish bore rifles.
for the british paradox gun, you had a 12 ga. shotgun barrel with choke bore and the choke was rifled.
this means the groove diameter is the shotgun barrel diameter. continental made bore rifles startet with a shotgun barrel that was rifled so the lands having the shotgun barrel diameter. its clear that such bullets must be thicker in diameter. of course, for a good barrel maker everything was possible also in the KuK empire than and dont forget that barrel diameter end especially shotgun barrel diameter were not standardised. even today a 12 ga shotgun barrel can vary from 18,20 to 18,90 mm under CIP law but this 18,90 mm is extreme and I doubt any good barrel maker will do it.

here is a pic of the old RWS bullet catalog showing the Katzenkopf / cats head bullets for paper and brass cases. notice the caliber is different to fit in brass or paper but the upper ring called "Führung" is allways the same. in the old Stukenbrock catalog this bullets were also recommended for paradox guns because the original british bullets were not available.
