Thread: 9.3x62 loading

I’m using Winchester 748 ball

Some get fancy Magnum primers, others I’ve just pulled out of the Greek surplus 303, the 98k does not care what it is fed.

A Mix of sako game head 286g, cast lead 300g and woodleigh premium big game 286g and a few old school Hornady interlock 286g projos

Throws all of them fine with the carcasses (or what’s left) to prove, haven’t run a chrono on them as realistically imo for bush hunting anything meeting that much weight flying around at sub 200m is going to have the big dirt nap if you touch it.

Accuracy is fine for 100m with Irons.

I will say as a recent 9.3 convert for anyone dubious, get one, anything organic will not appreciate being tickled with it !

My usual sneaky sources haha

I can get bags of 50 from Betram out of AUS

9.3x62 stamped

But yes some do need de burring or a tidy up, but I’ve had no issues just sizing and loading them up

I still have some on me, if you would like a couple to test ?
