Thank you for bringing it up.

New one on me and most interesting.

Bluelamb, your new sporter was probably intended for hunting in the Swiss canton of Grabünden.

In Graubünden, you have to use a rifle with a minimum caliber of 10.2 mm for the hunt on chamois and stag, and only single shots are allowed. The most popular caliber used there is 10.3 x 60R, and since in Graubünden, lots of people with not very much money hunt, old army rifles rebarreled to 10.3 x 60R and turned into single shots are widely used.
