I have never heard any of the improved line R93 actions failing.
I decided to get one after seeing them used and passed for deployment in a military role. Plenty of Armys including the Australian Army have kitted up with them for their main sniper system in .338LM.
.338LM is way larger than I would ever go for what I do, so if its good enough for them, anything smaller is good enough for me.

I personally have never seen or handled a more accurate or practical rifle for the way I hunt or shoot. I doubt I could ever go back to a standard bolt action as I am pretty sure I have forgotten how too cycle it and would get majorly fucked off crawling thru scrub and having to unload and load all the time. My only issue with them is the weight. A lot of it is in the stock and it would be good to see a sturdy carbon fibre one come out.
