Let me jump in!

The 9.3x57 deserves better; With all the production of new calibers that has occured in the last 15 years, this one was missed. All they needed to do was dust off and sharpen the chambering reamers and get to work building light game killers that would be useful in all the countries represented on this great Forum. Maybe someday, somewhere, some company will?

Rod - spot-on. While the rest of your post was right on, of course (& you have more game experience with this round than anyone this side of the pond), this last paragraph pretty much perfectly sums up the 9.3x57. It is THAT good, folks. It should be made anew. It is what the .358 Winchester attempted, but didn't quite do. It provides the original 9.3x62 ballistics in a handy, easy shooting rifle - indeed - well stated.
