Don't know about the new Steyr but I was fiddling with an old Mannlicher/ Westley Richards take down this afternoon and was quite impressed.

Looks lika a semi but it hadles real well. I havent hunted with one, only felt it in store and they are good quality guns, if you like the fat modern german look, why not.
