Ozhunter, was waiting for you and yours! Great stuff!!!

When did you get yours and was it originally chambered for 9.3x62 or x57?

Also, Clark, did your gunsmith rebed the action and relieve the tang and remove the rear stock ferrule? The ones we have received here are notorious for splitting stocks due to insufficient contact between recoil lug and wood recoil shoulder. I rebed all of the HVA {46,146 and 640 models} I've owned, along with reshaping the stocks for left shoulder shooting, etc.
