Crazyquick, I have the carbine 550 in 9.3X62.. I like short handy rifles and love full stocked guns, but hate that humpback. Mine shoots 3/4" groups all day long at 100yds vel 2400fps 286gr Woodleigh PP and Norma Oryx using Varget and Hodgens max data.. I also shoot extensive .375 H&H.. it sounds from your description of what your looking for the 9.3 would be the way to go, the .375 would be more versitile as it seems after 250yds the 9.3 drops like a stone and the .375 carry's on further.. I was able to take a very fine Sable in Zim at 300yds (later measured with lazer) with my .375 and a tree for a rest with no hesitation, In retrospect I would have to think pretty hard if I had been carrying a 9.3X62.. Aww, what the hell, most likely I would have went for it and put the crosshairs at the withers instead of the center shoulder.. I guess if you could only have one I would get the .375.... A .375 can do anything the 9.3 can do, but the 9.3 can't do all a .375 can do..450Dakota
