I would bet that their are at least a half a dozen posters here who use and love the 9.3x74R and it's retarded twin the 9.3x62. I know that all of these fellows, myself included, have taken it to Africa and used it on plains game with great sucess.

I have shot one Buffalo with a 9.3x74R and others here may have also. A large number of Buffalo have been shot with the 9.3x62. That being said I don't believe it is near enough rifle for dangerous, thick skinned game. It is much closer to a 35 Whelan than a 375 Holland.

The 320 grain bullets will probably not regulate in a double regulated for the 286 grain bullet. They are wonderful bullets in a bolt action at the proper velocity and in the 360#2 that they were made for.

It can be done most of the time but not every time.
