Re: 9.3 TUG 296g bullet

I have no results, but buddy Keith gave me a box of them, so I loaded up my 300gr. load (45.0gr.H4895) in the 9.3x57 and the 9.3mm TUG's.

I fired 2 shots to test them. The poi was 1 1/4" right of center and 1/2" high of zero. The 270gr. Speers, at 2,300fps strike 1" above the TUG's and 1 1/4" left (centered vertically & 2" high)) the 2 shots struck the paper, cutting perfect holes due to the wad-cutter ring and were only 3/8" apart vertically.

I used an sitting elbow rest, forend hold with the back of my hand resting on my folded up gun case. I'd forgotten my bench-rest when going to the range to check zero's.

I'm sure these are the TUG's - sharp ring, semipointed tip and V tail? Or are they TIG's? 296gr. or 293gr.? Oops, maybe I've not got the right bullet for this thread. If so, please advise and I'll delete it.
