I had a Ruger MMii laminated stock reshaped into a British stalker type with drop at the heel making irons very comfortable. A straight stock never fits me. Now recoil is mitigated. Very pleasant and lethal. I only load a 286 NP over 58.5 grains of RL 15 in a 24 inch No 3 SS Douglas barrel.

Maybe it's the load? ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/hzq5syf.jpg) Like I said, a puzzy cat.
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

BSA. Is R15 meter about the same as varget. I hate extruded vs ball (spoiled by Ramshot)
All of them do something better than the 30-06, but none of them do everything as well.

Is your 9.3 especially light or perhaps have an ill fitting stock for you? Of the ones I own they seem to kick more than an '06, but certainly much less than a .300 win mag. It’s newer rifle. Sauer 100 Swapped out the hard recoil pad for a slip on limb saver. Helps but still gets your attention, my ruger #1 300 win kicks less. I also get copper fouling fairly quick. And no where the velocities some Other reloaders get. Something to do with the barrel? I've got a couple of Sauer 100s. One is a 6.5 prc and I've heard the barrels on those in prc are slow too. I need to get mine to the range and see. I like the feel of the rifle but probably won't keep it if it's slow. Although I'll have to put about 100 rounds or so through it before I judge it because if had some barrels really speed up as they're broken in. Bb
