I personally think the original 9.3 x 62 loading of a 286 grain bullet at 2175 fps is the equal of the .375 H&H 270 or 300 grain loadings for all practical purposes. The .375 of course is flatter and the energy figures are higher, but I don't think game hit by either cartridge will note any difference. One could probably stretch this to include the 9 x 57 Mauser with 245 grain loading.
I think the law of diminishing marginal return might apply to the 9.3x57!
