For those of you that might remember I was wondering what kind of sporting rifles were popular during this era. Thanks

I'd suggest Mauser Sporters. Here's a couple of Walther Model B's. A 7x57 on the left and an 8x57 on the right.  A rebored "30 US Government" 35 Whelen J.P. Sauer and Son.  The BRNO's small rings were nice too, a 7x57 here.  A Husqvarna built FN 9.3x62.  Or a plain old FN Supreme 30-06.  Bottom line, it was likely a Mauser.... |

Winchester 70's, reworked Mauser 98 and DCM Springfields. The later were the most popular because you could buy them for $15 each delivered to your door with 100 rounds of ammo.
