The 9.3x62 has been on my bucket list. I'd like to know from someone who shoots that cartridge loaded with 286 gr. bullets out of a T3X Hunter if the rifle weight seems too light or not for that cartridge. Spec's say the rifle out of the box is around ~6.5 lbs, so I figure all up loaded and wearing a scope is likely a touch over 7 lbs? How is it for off-hand shooting?
As a point of reference my H&H all up weighs a bit over 9 lbs and is a joy shooting the 300's and 350 grainers.
To muddy things up a bit, I recently learned my grandad's custom '06 built back in the 50's on a Springfield action may be coming my way soon. I recall that rifle easily weighing 9 lbs, so I'm also entertaining the idea of doing either a rebore or a rebarrel of that rifle.
Decisions, decisions....
