ImVho, "efficiency" is the BEST feature of the old 9.3x62mm, inasmuch as you cannot kill a game animal deader than dead. Also, the "old-school round", even in a light rifle, "won't kick your head off".
(I have another Model 760 in .30-06, with badly pitted bore, that will soon be headed to JES to be cut-down to a barrel-length that fits better under the leg than the 22" barrel does, for hunting on horseback. - YES, 4-5" does make a difference when in the saddle.)
