9.3x62 is a VERY good alternative - check out tradeexcanada for a 9.3x57 or 9.3x62 - Husky models 46, 47, 146 or 246. They call them model 96's, Sporting Rifles and M98's. Handloaded the M96's will drive a 270gr. Speer at 2,300fps, 232gr. at 2,450fps and 286's at 2,200fps. These ballistics will handle any North American Game and much of Africa. The 9.3x62s factory ammo suffices as it is a mild improvement over these ballistics, ie: 2,340fps with a 286gr. and 2,600fps with 232's. A M98 (M246?) in 9.3x57 will duplicate these factory 9.3x62 loads which are actually at the 1925 level ballistics. If you don't handload, a 9.3x62 will do everything for you, from deer to grizzlies, merely using factory ammo. A double - SXS or U/U in 9.3x74R pretty much duplicates the 9.3x62's old bolt action ballistics. |
