My dad had an Oberndorf commercial Mauser with the spoon handle bolt. It was a beautiful classic rifle and would have come down to me on his death, had it not been stolen while he was in Florida recuperating from a bypass.
Anthow, he hunted moose extensively in Quebec with that rifle and the 175 RN factory ammo (Norma). He killed several meat bull moose and never lost one. He was not a great shot and practice was three rounds in a stump at 50 yards. The 7mm Mauser has proven itself since 1892.
