As usual, lancaster bring home the bacon! What an interesting gun! And the first time I've seen a stubby rifle barrel mated w/ a longer shotgun tube. I'm familiar w/ 9.3x72R & 9.3x57R/.360 but not the 82mm version. May I assume the "standard" 192 grain bullet is jogging along at around the same 2000 fps as the 72 version? This would put the thing in the roe deer/fox/hare category*? * Tho the gun savvy Nansen equipped himself and Johansen on their amazing "Farthest North" expedition w/ x57R/.360's and used them effectively on Polar Bear and walrus! His combination guns being 20 ga - 9.3x57R/.360...a genius choice really, allowing a large amount of ammo to be carried on their sleds. He lost his .577 over the side of a small boat early in the expedition! |
