I have a wonderful JP Sauer 3000 Lux drilling. It is 16/70 x 16/70 x 7/76R. It has a Kahles 3x9x42 scope. I used it hunting in Germany and Luxembourg for 7 years. Awesome weapon. The 7x65R is the rimmed version of the 7x64 Brenneke and of '06 capabilities. It would flatten a boar. I killed many boars, countless Reh (Roe deer), and a few fox with it while stationed in Germany. Great fun. If you are new into drillings I recommend go with a 16x16x7x57R or bigger calibre. Avoid 12s. They are often somewhat clubby in feeling and swing and are heavier than the 16s.
