This one has "7.62MM" stamped on barrel only. I have seen pictures of a 30/06 conversion that have both "30-06" and "7.62MM" stamp on the same barrel, that not doubt being a 30/06 conversion, actally the picture can be seen on this site at the Knowledge Libraryicon under Norway.

I believe it to be a 30/06 conversion as the receiver ring has the vertical recess milled in the face to accomodate the longer round but I'm just wondering about the absence of the 30-06 stamp as the other rifle showed had.

Thoughts.......
It will be 30-06.

My Norwegian HAER marked K98kF1 didn't have any 30-06 markings on it, just the 7.62mm on the barrel as yours is.

I'd be inclined to think that maybe some ex-Norwegian K98kF1 might have been restamped with additional 30-06 on importation to USAicon...?
