    Shouldn't be too bad a few European makers like Blaser do 9.3x62 in short barrels. Might be closer to 20" rather than 16" though. BLC-2 is suppose to be amazing with the 9.3x62, that is a reasonably fast powder.
    I'm using a minimum load of 2208 with a 286gr projectile in my 24" for 2250ish fps. A max load in a short barrel will probably be similar.

    I use the 270 SPs at 2150 or 2425fps in the CZ, depending on how hard I want it to boot

    I'm not sure how strong the 9.3 projectiles are & how well they will work on our small game as the muzzle velocity drops.

    It will still make a biggish hole though

    This will help you decide which projectile (pics stolen from Nitroexpress.com)

    Cheers guys,

    I figure the slow speeds will make it similar to a 45-70 or pistol cartridge in terms of killing power.

    The Privi factory loads look to do the business quite well.

    Thanks @stug

    Those 270 Speers look to have a thin jacket

    Will try some 232 Normas

    Any of you guys (or know someone else) who may be interested in the Husky of mine back on page 9 - make an offer.

    I intended taking it to East Europe/Russia to sell (that is why I bought her)
    They are very popular Boar rifle - were they shoot off stands at "driven" game.

    Look at this vid

    Yes - page 9 - just back 1 from here.
    Open to offers - but it will only be a collector or someone who wants a unique customised version.
    Offer needs to start with a 3 and have more than 2 zeros after it
    Rifle with rings and bases. Freighted
