buckstix, you should certainly get a copy of Pierre van der Walt's book "African Dangerous Game Cartridges", ISBN 978-0-620-48339-1. It covers most known (+ some less known) cartridges from 9.3x62 to .600 NE. It contains lots of load data for each cartridge. On the 9.3x62 alone there are 6 ½ pages text and 3 pages of load data, covering bullets from 232 gr to 320 gr and lots of suitable powders.

Hello Kuduae
Thanks for the reply

Yes, I have that book and will dig it out tomorrow. I've referenced it for the larger calibers, but didn't realize it also covered the 9.3x62mm. I'm anxious to read about it.

Holy cow!

Did not know they made it in that caliber. I thought they did 300 Win, 338 Win and 375 H&H.

Congrats!

Hello Rell
Thanks for the reply

I also didn't know they made the Sako Safari in that caliber in the early AIV series. I had to call the auction house to confirm the barrel and factory box marking of the caliber. Then a member of the SAKO COLLECTOR FORUM wrote me to say that the importer Stoegers, had known of only 6 examples in this caliber.
