I've got a UGEX in 9.3X74 and it's not bad for recoil in a light weight rifle. Mine came w/o mounts so I installed EAW pivot mounts and a Leuopld 1.5X5. The regulation didn't change. It's a tack driver for a DR.
The 9.3 is a pretty good caliber out to 250 yds. Another Chapuis 9.3 with iron sights took a moose at 187 yds (lazered)here last season.
