My Pre-war M70 9.3x62 has a new Krieger 24" and weighs 8.5# which is just about right in my mind. It lives in a McMillan Griffin and Howe style stock, a mighty rare thing. Recoil not bad and ok to carry if you are fit, which you need to be anyway.

I heartily endorse Clearwater for reboring, unless you can get Dan Pedersen to do it.

Pay particular attention to feeding--the shoulder on the 9.3 is further forward and case has less taper than the '06. Redneck just finished tweaking mine--you are in excellent hands there.
