Hi forgot one thing about 30R Blaser: it's a high pressure cartridge nothing to compare with 9,3x74R or 8x57IRS.

CIP datas:

standard pressure: 4050 bars or 58740 psi
max individual allowed pressure: 4658 bar or 67551 psi
proof pressure: 5050 bars or 77240 psi

These pressures show you how robust and tough are modern double rifles.
Most of them are used in driven hunt in Europe and some shoot a lot during season and practicing running boar target shooting.
