I've accumulated a bolt action single shot , only marks are one line on the barrel , " MAUSERLEIN 6mm ARSENAL VIENNA AUSTRIA". Needs cleaning, roughly made, any info would be appreciated.

  Believe "MAUSERLEIN" is only used for marketing purposes. It's a diminutive of Mauser, i.e. "LITTLE MAUSER".
  
  Couldn't find "ARSENAL VIENNA AUSTRA" in my references.
  
  Could you describe the proof marks? At least we would be able to narrow down the country of orgin.
