7.6 S seems to be the German way of saying 30-06. I was wondering how they came up with that designation.

Is that an abbreviation for 7.6 Springfield? Isn't .308" actually 7.62 mm? I would think the Germans would be more precise than knocking off the "2" from 7.62 mm. Maybe their way of "dissing" the English terminology...?

That is a really neat rifle... smile
