exactly the same here. in case of birds splinter is indeed more stable/ better but i do prefer merkel TBH. the problem is that i can't use either one.. instead gotta search for hghreviewer.com or such. doc. said i'm low in hgh...9.3x64 wrote:My Merkel 12x12x.222 drilling has a splinter, but not the real tiny British splinter.
My Merkel 9.3x9.3x20 has a much larger forend.
I much prefer this forend for rifle shooting.
However I have to admit when shooting moving birds I like the splinter.

I have decided not to buy the D99 as the weight is more than my Sauer 3000. So now I can focus on finding a suitable bockdrilling
