YUP - that's the bullet. I guess I'll pull the other 18 rounds and save them for the 9.3x62. My 9.3x57 would be getting 2,200fps tops - maybe 2,175fps - which is what it does with 300gr.

As well, I'll run them at about 2,300fps to 2,350fps from the 22" 9.3x62 - a moderate load only. That should do the trick for moose, elk and bear - if I ever get the notion of shooting another of those - doubt it.

I googled 9.3TUG and got some interesting results - been discussed quite a bit right here at nitroexpress - several threads including this one and in concert with the 9.3x64 and 9.3x74. Seems factory chrono'd 2,288 out of a 9.3x74- supposed to be in the 2,270's. That will be a moderate load for a handloaded 9.3x62 with modern powders.

Did I mention they seem to be VERY accurate? This rifle of mine was made in 1929 - a Husky 9.3x57 with .357" bore and .370" groove diameter. These TUG's indicate exceptional accuracy so far - further tests would be necesary, of course for a more definitive proof - and more than blasting 2 down-range - but - high hopes for the 9.3x62's improved ballistics and tighter groove diameter.

Strange that I just came into possession of these bullets this fall, briefly tested them 2 days ago and bingo here's a thread about them - from another Canuck yet.
