Red - thanks for the heads up that you made one. VERY informative and helped make a choice. 9.3x62 is an amazing caliber, and for comfort-reasons, and emotional satisfaction, fulfills an awesome Bavarian-style gun, Bavarian-caliber, Eastie-make rifle. However, I dislike muzzle-lift, and am hairline comfy with .30-06. Just feels...unmatched, to my stature and style.

Thank you for all the info, however, t'was much appreciated!
