I have a Mauser 6.5 mm 24 inch barrel Sporting bolt action rifle. Stamped Waffenfabrik Mauser - Oberndorf with Serial Number 96012. Two Triggers. 6.5 N stamped on barrel with PORT. stamped directly above. British Proof Marks (purchased in Kenya early 1950's).
Does any body know Year of Manufacture & cartridge dimensions for this rifle?
 
Your Oberndorf was manufactured between 1926 and 1927. You have the pre-1922 stamp. The Oberndorf stamp changed in 1922, but it was not unknown for post-1922 rifles to have the pre-1922 stamp.
 
Throw a couple photos up and lets have a look at it.

Hello, My wife and I hunted with Marius 2 years ago. He fit us into his schedule after a different outfitter "bailed" on us. He was always very good with communications and although we didn't end up meeting him personally, he called us multiple times during our hunt to make sure things were going well. We were very happy with him.

Reach out to the guys at Epic Outdoors.

They will steer you right for landowner tags and outfitters that have them.

I have held a membership with them for years and they are an invaluable resource.

Way better that asking random people on the internet...WAY better
