About LinkBacksThanks for all the information. I'll check out the Privi bullets. I would like to try Partitions as well eventually but they are not in great supply around here it seems in 9.3.
This article below is some testing of various 9.3x62 bullets into an elephant carcass to test penetration and weight retention. The Oryx did well. So did the Woodleighs. This test though was really shooting a tough animal hide so not sure how it translates to thin skinned NZ game. But it provided some interesting results:

I took my Husqvarna apart tonight to clean it and give it a good inspection. The rifle weight is 3.09kgs (6lbs. 13.5ozs) which is pretty good. It is over 1lb. lighter than my bare weight Sako and about the same as my modern bare weight Winchester M70 Extreme Stainless. Not bad for a rifle that is over 50 years old. Husqvarna was making lightweight rifles before lightweight rifles were cool.
I got my dies in and will soon have the brass. Once I get a scope mounted I can do some load development and see where this all shakes out.
