8mm mauser caliber
It looks better than the pictures show.
Very smooth action, light trigger pull.
Should kill anything on the north american continent.....
Selling it for a friend.

Thanks for looking.

What is the bore and barrel"
Since the trigger is so light was it replaced with an aftermarket trigger such as a Timney?
What kind of accuracy were you able to get from this rifle?

Sorry for the confusion on the caliber.
This is the rounds it uses. 8mm mauser
Bore looks nice, but I haven't fired it myself.
I'm selling it for a friend.
I don't really want to tale it apart to look at the trigger, it just feels really good

Since you have not shot it can you tell if the bolt is original to the rifle ( head spacing concern)?

I don't know how to tell if the bolt is the original. The one shell i have chambers fine.
Maybe a gunsmith can help you check headspace, or you can make me a cash offer, and deal with that later.
