I have one of the late versions in 9.3x62 the last year they were imported into the USA. I fully agree with your assessment of the bulky stock dimensions. Mine does have fairly nicely figured wood though.
I'm wondering if it's possible to find a gunsmith who can remove some wood on the original stock?
I took a farrier's rasp, some files and sandpaper to mine. Turned out pretty well IIDSSM. Certainly far more useful than it was before.
I have the same issue with a new Winchester Model 70 I purchased --way too thick and bulky up front for my tastes..need to have work done to it as well..
