Re: Is 9.3x74R ENOUGH gun for Cape Buff?

Robertson seems to be a fan of the 9.3x62 on buffalo, and that one is similar enough to the 9.3x74R it would seem.
Factory loads are about identical. The 9.3x62 can be handloaded higher, of course, for stronger bolt guns. it also has a much less tapered case, which reduces bolt thrust in the same manner as the Ackley Improved rounds. The 9.3x62 was way ahead of it's time.
