Sierra2,

Thanks. I got some ammunition and a boresnake today. Can't wait to get to the range.

I bought a mannlicher stocked CZ-550 as soon as I saw my first one, a 6.5x55mm!! How does it work? Very well, two deer the first year. It is easy carrying, accurate (yes will shoot 140 grain slugs less than an inch). If you don't like the 6.5 Swede, go for a 7x57mm, never can go wrong there. The 9.3x62 is great, but it is really a BIG game cartridge - Moose, Elk, Bear, Eland, Kudu, etc..
