Hi Fellas

I would consider any of the 232gn bullets from Norma or Woodleigh in the 9.3x57. I have successfully used the 232gn Vulkan on numbers of feral animals up to 300kg when shot out of a 9.3x62 at 2700fps MV. At the lower '57 MV's I think these bullets would be super. I am tossing up the Oryx or the new Woodleigh for next time in my '62. (no experience with either)

I have many positive experiences on large ferals with both the 270gn Speer at 2500fps MV and the 285gn PPU factory ammo at about 2300fps. The PPU in particular penetrates very deeply at the lower '62 velocities so would be a bomb in the 9.3x57 pushed hard. The Speer is softer, I have been lucky with this bullet it seems, I think it would be a great heavier 9.3x57 pill.

I have included pics of two young bulls shot on the run with 270gn Speer at 30-50m about 10 seconds apart. I retrieved a mushroomed bullet from inside the skin on the other side & promptly lost it, guessing it was about 50% of original weight. The PPU pills go right through!
