...I think the caliber of mid-bore double rifles like your double rifle are great. The 9.3X72 and its brothers (9x70, 9.1x72 etc) are great for deer and hogs hunting. They are easy to handle and lively...
I couldn't agree more. I love my 450 and 500BPE doubles, but they are not as much fun to carry day after day, and the 360s are enough to do what I need to do! I haven't yet tried hunting with my 450/400, but that should be as nimble as the 360s (360 2.25" and 9.3x72r), since it's a black powder gun in the shorter 2 7/8" variation.
