What are the definitive velocities for what bullet weights in the 9.2x57?
I think they might be well within the range of my 9.3x74R where I think the 286 gr Woodleigh PP is doing around 2170 fps. I have killed a number of pigs, donkeys, horses, scrub bulls and 14 or so water buffalo with it.
So if the 9.3x57 is similar, no reason it could not do similar results.
I used to think it was a little leseer powered in velocity?
I'm glad to see mention of the 232 Gr Woodleights, thought the lowest Woodleigh went was 250 gr, just had a look and see they have mis-transposed the title line on their latest catalogue.
here are the original Norma handloading data for the 9,3x57
https://www.norma.cc/us/Ammunition-Academy/Loading-Data/93x57/
and because its made for the Husqvarna 46 / 46a which is in fact a Mauser 94/96 action and NOT a Modell 98 and because Norma understand this problem and know what to do it would be NOT wise to load hotter than this for the swedish mauser action.
