Not sure when the Woodleigh Hydro bullets were inroduced, may not have existed back in '05 when this thread started, but they certainly changed the game for the 9.3 calibre.
Even in a Mauser where seating depth on a full charge in the 9.3x62 may preclude feeding, a Hydro in the chamber for the first shot definitely represents a paradigm shift on dangerous game.
Good writeup on the Woodleigh Hydro bullets here for those (very few!) unfamiliar.
Currently building a 9.3x62 on a 1915 Oberndorf action, with Australia's Northern Territory buffalo the intended target, so keenly interested in this topic atm.
Great article Marrakai! Good to see you're finally coming around to the 'metric' side of things! Sounds like it will be a nice rig, the Oberndorf's are a great base to start a custom job! Only problem mate is your case is 2mm short Cheers 93x64mm
