Thats right where I would have expected the Nosler to run at 57gr. As my barrel is about the same length as yours, I may get very similar results. If it shoots tight, this could well be the load to use; it duplicates the Norma 285gr Oryx so close, that one could use factory Norma ammo in a pinch.

I'll have to get a new Hogden book. I load for both 9,3s now, and it would be a great addition to my loading library.

I have several hundred Speer 270gr Hot Cores that I got for the 9,3X74R back when they were about the only game in town. I've used the Speers with excellent results. They act quite similar to the Norma Oryx bullets in mediun sized game. They are a wonderful kudu, wildebeest, etc bullet at the lower 9,3 velocities. I'll probably load 4064 or 4350 for the 270s; I have plenty of each, and like the 4064 very much under all types of conditions.

I am looking in earnest for a duplicate scope mount for the rifle. I want another top rail and ring assembly to mount a 2X7 for use with 250-270gr bullets rolling out a bit faster for longer open country shooting. I like the idea of the 4X Hensoldt with the fine German #4 reticle, but 1X4 and 2X7 Leupold pair would be just right for this caliber, IMO.

1x4 for 286 at 2,350
2X7 for 250 at 2,550

I was considering the 250 Swift A-Frame, but at the lower velocities of the X62, I think the Nosler B-Tip might do better...OPINIONS????
