A .204 Ruger / 22-250 AI or some sort, with scope, primarily for the rifle range.
6x42 Heavy Duplex for the 30-06.
More hunting, fishing, time at the range, time around a campfire.

If kitting out & reloading are complicated, ..... they don't hold a candle to women. Man - are they complicated or what :?

No doubt about that! Words can't even explain why they do anything. Kinda like the joke I heard a while back.
These three guys find a lamp with a genie in it. Genie pops out and grants them each one wish. First guy says "I want to be the richest man in the world" Pow he's the richest man in the world. Second guy says "I want to be the most powerful man in the world." Pow he's the most powerful man in the world. The genie asks the third guy what does he want. He pauses ponders a bit and then says, "I want a road to Hawaii." The genie looks at him in disbelief and says "Do you know how much time and materials and effort it will take for me to do that? I'll give you another wish." So the man thinks for a minute and says. "I just want to understand women." The genie responds, "Do you want a 2-lane or 4-lane highway?"

Is that a 9.3 necked up from an 06 case? or is it based on the 7X64 Brenekke?

The 9.3X64 was developed ~1910. It is a magnum size, beltless case with a slightly rebated rim. Interestingly, it is the parent cartridge for the .376 Steyr.

I really don't think I should post any of this stuff on here because of the enablers wandering around this forum with too much time on their hands. But oh well!
A deer tag so I can shoot one off my front porch this fall.
Elk tag
Antelope tag so I can get one of the bucks I cross paths with on a weekly basis.
A new Chrony
Stock for the 338AI I think I got one picked out.
Saw a Supergrade for a Pre-64 on Gunbroker the other day $920!! I think I can do better on the price and make someone drool.
Remaining parts for 338AI
Scope for 280AI and 338AI
Think I got my mind made up for the 280 Z6 2.5-15X44 with a 4A
Either a Win or Ruger in 257 Roberts
A Win 70 SS FW in 7-08
A 6.5 or some sort.
Exhaust brake and 4" SS exhaust for my truck.
A 24' Wilson stock trailer.
A newer tractor with a cab A/C and heat
A newer baler
Win the $500 Million lottery! Dang can't do that in Nevada!!

Is it a .478 bolt face? That would be awesome to wildcat in 6.5 or 7mm with a sharp shoulder. What's the capacity on that?

Rim diameter is 0.496 inches. The 6.5x63mm Messner Magnum was built off this case. From that case, the 8.5mm Messner Magnum was built. The 9.3x64 Brenneke was the parent case for the 8mm Mázon.

I have a good friend with a custom build rifle in this calibre......truly awesome!
Shilen 24" match barrel, Arnold Jewel trigger, GBR (Rem.700) blue print action, Swaro.Z6 2-12x50 scope & a nicely grained old brush stale from Turkey to mount it all in.
In round numbers, about £6,300 Sterling/$9,500
Short action cartridge, small BR primer, Lapua brass, 6.5x129gn SST bullet & 37gns Rel.15 magical combination clovers every time @ 100yds. Very very impressive. :roll:
Neck shoots red hinds @ 200yds+ in Scotland.
Cheers, ET
