Ok from what I read on the Spanish Mauser page, is that if its 8X57mm then it was converted from 7mm to 8mm by the Spanish. I could not find anything about shooting these rifles or loading for them. Spain also converted a lot of 7mm to 7.62 and those do not sound like you want to fire full loaded 7.62 NATO or 308 in them. Not sure what you could sell it for.
-
Looks like Spanish Mauser MOD 1916. They were originally 7X57 and in 1943 Spain converted them to 8X57. Pictures of the top of the receiver and left side would help.

The L C stamp in the wood behind the tang screw could be "La Crona" arsenal stamp
-
The straight stock, turned down bolt and sling mounts on the side do not appear to be German issue configuration. Have you shot it, meaning do you know for sure its 8X57mm?
-
Looking more like a MOD 1916 Spanish Mauser. Google "Spanish Mauser Home Page" see if that is what it is.
-
what are the marks on the top of the receiver? Is it a Mauser made in Germany? A Mauser variant chambered in 8X57mm?
-
No its been a while since I have had it out shooting.

Price drop $540 for rifle base and rings

Very good deal and a nice tripod. I just bought one last week 😬

Appreciate the thought but I meant to spell "wooves". From what reading I have done the disease is spread in the feces and urine and when winter herds gather in thicker densities on limited range the chance of contamination goes up.
-
My perspective is dated. Last I was aware CWD was more in WY and CO. Some but not a whole lot in UT. A lot of low density deer populations between S AZ and CWD heard's. One good thing about wooves is that they take down the sick fast and spread out the deer slowing the disease propagation.

this reminds me of my first Javi hunt around Camp Reno in 1966. It rained like this the whole weekend. i recall some guy parked his jeep off the side of the dirt road and the ground was so soft it sunk to its axels and frame. My old man used the winch on the front of our Land Cruiser to pull him out.

Had a chance recently to compare Meopta 12X50's to Vortex Razors and Swaro EL's. Meopta's enough better than Vortex to spend the extra $200 for & Swaro's are better but at DOUBLE the $?? Nope not that much better.
