Quote:
a Ugoslav hunter, 2 years ago just a bit West of here, dropped a large grizzly at 25 paces using a single Sako 9.3x62 factory load. As with many factory loads, this one was loaded to the typical low velocity with it's 286gr. Norma plastic-tippd bullet. From the hunter's 22" barrel Mann. it probably was well below 2,300fps. It din't matter to that 8 foot bear. Bang - splat - lights out.
EXCELLENT,as I've just bought the last 3 boxes of this exact ammo.
Keep me loaded-up for a while before I get my dies.
