    I shoot a CZ550 Full Stock in 9.3x52. I handload my own 286gr loads. Everything I have shot has been a one shot kill, and I love the rifle and caliber.

    Velocity is thrilling,but diameter does the real killing.

    Can any of you other 9.3x62 users advise me what the drop figures are ( real world from actual use ) for your 286 / 300 grain loads and a 100m zero ?

    I though I should use it more often as my mates are well geared up to take any long shots so can handle anything within 300m with the 9.3
    Usually have my Leupold MK4 1.5-5 scope on it which has a SPR reticle so there are plenty of options for hold over marks at longer range like the bottom of the large circle and the 10 and 15 mil marks below that.

    Its a great we scope and the SPR circle is ideal for just covering an animal evenly and knocking a big hole it.

    What's your load/muzzle velocity.
    My open sight Mauser with a 286gr doing a leisurely 2200fps has about 23" drop at 200yds from a 100yd zero.

    I found 10 once fired 9.3X62 Cases at the Range today.

    No one wants the cases?

    Beautiful Norma Brass?

    Any 444 brass on that range? Could do with 50 full length rather than the stupid short Hornady I have.
