    What's in your arsenal Jim? Any African rifles?

    I have a 375 H&H and a 416 Taylor. The 416 can fire a 400gr at 2350fps.

    Nice looking piece.
    Obviously not a 'pop'ular calibre in NZ.
    Run a 62mm reamer into the chamber - voila, another 9.3 x 62 sad case
    Or an /06 AI reamer - same performance, cheaper brass

    You're welcome

    Yep it's gonna get he 9.3x62 treatment. There's been a noticeable upswing in that caliber's popularity so getting ammo isn't too hard, and I've already spoken to Allan Carr who has the reamer. Looking to go to Africa within 3 years, so buying the rifle will motivate me to get there...
