Re: Rifles by WJ Jeffery 500 Jeffery, 333 Jeffery 404 Jeffery

Taylor noted the .333 having a 300gr. soft or solid at 2,200fps factory load.
My 9.3x57 ran re-sized 300gr. at 2,175fps, with no pressure signs and only .0002" expansion on the expansion ring of the case from FL sized. It easily could have made 2,200fps. The rifle was the sporter version of the Swede model 1896, being the model 94 (I've been told).

That fellow did NOT want to fire that .404. After seeing the recoil, I would not either.
The Jeffery .333 seemed to recoil more than my 9.3x57, but then I've never watched someone else shoot it.
My load in the 9.3x57 was 45gr. H4895.
Incidentally, the 9.3x62's early ammo was loaded with soft and solid .366" bullets at 2,175fps according to Taylor.
