How did you score that ?? :?

9.3 x62 has never been listed as a factory option in the K95. Someone has got lucky somewhere, or pulled some strings with money :lol: :lol:

Custom order ... From their documentation "Special caliber (available with surcharge)"

Didn't cost much more for the surcharge. I mean, they are already doing a 30/06 in Stutzen. Not much of a stretch to do a 9.3x62mm.

Should be reasonably efficient in the Stutzen, loaded with something like 2206H. Personally I would prefer the rimmed option, even it may be a little less efficient in the short barrel.

Definitely a win if the surcharge was reasonable. Usually such things from Blaser are priced in kidneys and first born children :lol:

A K95 Stutzen barrel in 9.3x74R, now that definitely makes me feel all warm and tingly in my happy place.
I'm soft and I don't care. :dance:

Definitely not kidney or children prices. I ordered prior to OSA taking over, so not sure what the going rate is nowadays.

I'm getting good results with 2208.

Well, it looks like I'm biting the bullet, the shop is just confirming the price with OSA, but a new 22 hornet barrel is coming my way.
It will possibly even become a 22K hornet, depending on the local supply of Lil gun.
3-6 month waiting time and a price increase, seems OSA or Miall's very little has changed.

I'm getting it without a separate new fore end, if it doesn't work with the Stutzen fore end then I can order one for another $1400 or so.

That will be a lovely little outfit, congratulations.
BTW I purchased 4 bottles of Lilgun last December for my Hornet.

Good gun for the wife to learn with, great little spotlighting gun for foxes ect and I can load it down subsonic very easily for a little fun around camp.

Nice one! I'd love to get a Hornet but I've absolutely no need for one, not that this should matter. Hope it's a shooter :dance:

Don’t you shoot fox and capercaillie? Don’t you have a BBF 97 that would accept a 22h/12ga barrel set? Come on now, be creative and enjoy the wonders of a little 40 grain bullet at 3000 FPS and how well it can kill small to medium sized game or pull the other trigger if it runs or flys.
