The 9.3x62 seems like a great cartridge, although Ive never hunted with it, I did hunt with the 9.3x74r. It was a slayer for sure. I foolishly sold my 9.3x74r DR to buy a 470NE. Don't get me wrong the 470 Merkel, just drippps of cool' but I missed the 9.3, so much that I just ordered a Ruger No1 in 9.3x74.

Ive owned two different 338WM's and just could never feel the love. I think much of it had to do with 33s never being popular in the US. That's a shame too; because we all know its a good cartridge. Given a choice, Id still take the 9.3x62, its got pinache.

My buddy took his custom 9.3x62, to Afrika with me for Plains Game. I took a 375H&H, neither of us felt under or over gunned. Sure we could have done just as well with a 30-06; but it was AFRIKA after all.
