My 9.3x57 is a M46 - and was built in 1929, according to the S#.

Note - there are no CIP standards for the 9.3x57 - there is only the guideline noted, that Norma loads it to a maximum of 43,000PSI(CIP pezio) which is 38,000CIP(crusher method)ie: CUP.

Why is it still loaded to those levels today? Can anyone give a logical explanation> - Action strength isn't logical due to the other rounds this action & rifle is currently found to be chambered in.

Note for those who aren't familiar with the M94/M96 M46 Husky, it is found to be chambered for these ctgs:
6.5x55 - 51,000PSI SAAMI and 55,000PSI CIP
9.3x57 - 43,000PSI CIP
9.3x62 - 57,000PSI CIP
7x57 --- 57,000PSI CIP - thrown in for those who didn't know the 'normal' pressure.
8x57 --- 57,000PSI CIP
.30/06-- 60,000PSI SAAMI and 59,000PSI CIP.

None of them have been blown up, but many have been sold in North America. Many of the purchasers are factory load shooters only - re-check the pressures - SAAMI and CIP. The eyeopener was the .30/06!, along with M93's being chambered for the .308 Winchester. I have one of those right now, belongs to a friend, who's Dad shot moose and deer with it for 30 years- factory 180gr., not a bobble.

I was informed by someone from a Swedish forum that the straight bolt M46 Husky's were M94's, while the bent bolts are 'possibly' M96's - but we've not seen any straight bolts at Allen's Armory in the States, nor TradeecCanada up here.
