[QUOTE="comen, post: 2913564, member: 52622"] I have shot a 9.3 for about 18 years from a cz 550. My rifle has a long freebore and I can seat bullets way out. It takes quite a bit more powder to reach factory velocity than my reloading manuals indicate. I bought Nosler custom ammo for it when I first shot it and the box listed the 286 partition at 2430 fps. I chrongraphed this ammo and was only getting 2213. My current load uses ramshot powder and gets 2410 with a 285 gr Hawk round tip. I have killed deer elk and bear with this rifle with good results. I replaced the scope with a receiver sight and NECG barrel band front years ago, and had the stock slimmed down 'til it looks like the newer model 70 featherweight. At 6lbs 13 oz with 5 down it does jump a bit when firing, but is a joy to carry. [/QUOTE]
