CZ, Sako, Ruger, Kimber?

I would say that's much too light... I would add 1 pound 11 ounces to the gun to bring it up to a comfortable 10.5 pounds. this should make the gun much more shootable and will allow for a respectable amount of practice.

the Win M70 I shot was a brand new gun, the owner was just breaking it in... or trying to before the sharp pain to the shoulder stopped him. he had both me and another shooter (both very experienced with heavy rifles) try the gun and we agreed it was horrible. perhaps the gun fits some people just right and doesn't feel bad to shoot or perhaps people are putting a very heavy scope on it (the gun I tried was just iron sights).

I cant comment on the Kimber Caprivi other then that its VERY LIGHT. I handled a Caprivi in 458 Lott at the Dallas gun show and it was under 8 pounds which was just silly for its chambering.

Kimber Caprivi 458 Lott under 8 pounds? hmmmm you might want to double check that
 
I see the title listed with "CZ, Sako, Ruger and Kimber".
Any thought of a Balser?
Lots of DG calibers and you can customize the weight with the options you choose.
375H&H is offered in 3 barrel profiles, and
Add to that you can drop in a 12 oz. kickstop for the heavy stuff if you wish.
 
If Blaser rifles cost about half of what they do I might get one. But I like my model 70s just fine
Every now and then you can find one that was used for a real bargain.
Most of the used ones are in very good condition as well.
However I do agree with you that they are not cheap by any means.

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx
