NitroX, the very best point by RWS on 9,3x74R ever, was a solid. They quit production.
The 9,3x74R was developed as the continental answer to the .375HH, and in those days was loaded very closely to it.
Nor the strong load and the solid point either, worked.
Those germans must be stupid to let the .375HH "¿superimpossed you said?, ok that.

No I said nothing like that.

While I prefer my .450 for elephant and buffalo, a fair number of water buffalo have fallen to my 9.3mm, so I do not have a problem using it on them. I would try it on elephant as well if I wished to.

I agree with you that in certain situations it is less than ideal eg in a charge situation. No one could argue a 9.3mm or even a .375 is the best thing to carry if an elephant or buffalo is charging. Usually the bigger the better.

However a cool, clear headed accurate experienced shot can make up somewhat for a rifles deficiencies. Same as someone who might flinch with a .500 NE might completely ruin IT'S advantages.

Gentlemen,

Nothing wrong with a spirited debate. Preacher must feel ganged up on at the moment, but he did ask for it .

But please everyone keep the debate "above the belt". Please no personal comments.
