For sale is my 1966 Mannlicher chambered in the classic European 7x64 calibre.

A very attractive and well-kept example of a traditional European sporting rifle, presented in good to very good overall condition for its age.

The timber stock retains a very nice finish and attractive grain. It has been used as a hunting rifle and consequently carries the expected minor handling and field-use marks, but there is no significant damage. The metalwork and action also present very well.

The rifle is fitted with an excellent period Carl Zeiss Diavari 1.5–6x variable scope, complete with leather lens covers. Importantly, the Zeiss is mounted using traditional quick-detachable claw mounts, allowing the scope to be removed and refitted while retaining the rifle’s classic European configuration.

The rifle also retains its open sights.

Included with the rifle:

• Carl Zeiss Diavari 1.5–6x scope
• Quick-detachable claw mounting system
• Leather scope/lens covers
• Hornady 7x64 reloading dies
• Quantity of unprimed 7x64 brass

The 7x64 Brenneke is one of the great European sporting cartridges and makes this a very appealing package for someone wanting a usable classic hunting rifle rather than simply a collector’s piece.
