cheap ? 4000€ wasn't cheap ,well not for me

i will use this for driven hunt on wild boar ,so 100m max, but most of time will be use in 20-40m range where most time they "jump" out of bush, i guess

i hunt now with 12guage o/u , brenneke ammo for driven hunt,or 8x57 in cz 550 for longer range up to 150m
so i only want to "upgrade" my o/u 12guage rifle, to SxS 9,3x74r cal double rifle
i don't need aaaaaa wood or silver/gold or any expensive thing on side of rifle
because i will use her in bush, like "work" rifle ,wont put her in closet and look at her and
be proud to have this great looking rifle ... don't have $$ for that kind hobby

i will probably be in "grrrrr" state if i buy some really great looking and after 2-3 hunts come out with many scratches ,ding-dongs,like my existing rifle's look ,and i don't want that.

i want rifle to be hunting rifle,not girl kind rifle to watch on each branch to avoid damage,you know what i mean
i have before sako 75 in really great wood i think aaaa ,and in 2 year i have her
--nothing---
pigs in bush ,,weeell will go around -pigs gone,or wont put her on wood in direction where could go out animals -roe buck jump for 5-10 sec out in field till i put her up and aim he is gone
so i figured out that i love my rifle,she was greeeaaat looking ,but not for hunt ,so i sell he to friend and buy working -ugly- cz 550 and real hunt start again

..well better to stop here,,,

so by reading a loot this forum and dr forum and couple other's
i got to decision to ask here for 2 solutions
1. second hand ,and that will be hard ,no sXs in this cal in croatia on sale right now
to buy rifle in germany i need drive cca 1000km so i can test her + wait time is 2 months
for papers ,don't know for other eu country's how loong is waiting
2. new one ,you tell me for this kind $ (that i up to 4000€) it's best to shoot first to see
is it regulated good ,but shops don't do that 99% time,and for this ugx model i find a loot of
people recommend in 9,3x74r cal ,one say it's 70/30 ratio -good,not so good
but in "small" calibers under 357hh most people say it's great and precise rifle ....
with this is again kind problem ,no one have this rifle in croatia

only by order
so do i need to say it must be regulated good or ?? before i order one ?
or just hope it's ok ,and if not send back to shop to regulate her again ?

phuu too loong writing
but thanks for help
and sorry for grammar
