Looks like a sporterized german mauser, but I am no expert. I am sure someone with more knowledge will chime in soon.

what other markings does it have?

shooting 30-06 in 8mm mauser? oops my bad .... i see 30-06 on barrel.

so are the necks splitting after firing? or already split?

Two possibilities:

1: (highly likely) He was shooting the wrong ammo in an 8mm Mauser.

2: (also possible) It was re-barreled in 30-06 when they cut the stock up.
