This caused a sensation in the long range (1000 yard) shooting community and a sudden increase in interest for what had been until then a rather obscure cartridge.

Your Niedner looks really fine. I assume it is a single shot and that in place of a magazine there is a trough to facilitate loading. Pictures of the action with the bolt open would be nice, as well as the underside of the stock.

Congratulations on a great find.

This doesn't hold a candle to your Niedner, but this is my Dubiel heavy barrelled Springfield target rifle, made in imitation of the Springfield Model T or Special Target rifles, in caliber .30-'06:





I saw this on gunbroker today, a rifle that Ben Comfort may have used at Wimbleton
