I've shown a pic of a boar shot at the jaw in my thread of Chorin.
He was still alive but not lucky, the wound was closed but fully pus-filled. I got him in may this year.
About the caliber...I agree to Kuduae. Endless caliber discussions... I wanted to have a bolt action rifle, a real one for all. And I was tired of the mediums like 30-06 or 8x57. It should be a new one but with history...so there is only the Mauer 98 and Otto Bock (for a german).
Until today I haven't shot enough game with the 9.3 to give a qualified opinion. I works, but not with all kind of bullets, what a miracle.
Perhaps two examples: biggest boar last year had 98KG, shot at about 70-80m on driven hunt, 8x57 bullet lodged in shoulder.
Last picture of Chorin thread was the first one this year 9.3 and geco plus, shot at moonlight in april, was a centered shot (accidentally), no escape.
