    howa 1500 in .300 problems

    Get manufactured ammo with the same characteristics than your own load to compare. I was the owner of a 1500 Howa 300WM, No problem. I was shooting upto 220 yds (200m), under MOA of course. From time to time (expansive) I used Sako Racehead OTM 175 grs. This way you will see if you have a...

    9.3X62 for Cape Buffalo?

    .416 Rem (Winch 70 Safari, Sako? maybe) is equal to .416 Rigby but cheaper... better than .375 H&H or 9.3x62 for bufs but the recoil is not easy to manage.. For cats 9.3x62 is perfect. (338Winch Mag ?)

    9.3 CZ

    Here, in Europa we use RWS or Brenneke TUG/UNI for very large game like Attila Boar Turkey [293 grs, 2428fps] Evo [290grs, 2395fps], very closed to .375H&H, Norma from 231 to 285 grs , GECO (owner RWS) 255grs-2559fps, Sako, Sologne and Hornady, Federal. Longtime ago I was owner of an 9.3x64...

    9.3 CZ

    Yes, sure, it's the same in Europa with our games, but here I speak about Africa Hunts. Maybe a good choice ? Norma offers : Oryx 325grs ... I think we can trust in it. isn't it?

    I agree !! + Federal PRVI are bad just for the range : too slow, bullets are "old fashion"

    .416 Remington Magnum Recoil

    I have owned a Winch 70 Safari .416 Rem .... fabulous ! Scoped with a Leupold low magnification : accurate to 150 yds and more. if you pull up the recoil is not violent, dry as the .338wm, it is similar in nature to the 375hh, more flexible, slower.

    Ugly question: 9.3x62 vs .338WM

    Thanks for your relevant response... 9.3x62 has a pretty good quantum of movement and .338WM has a pretty good length of shot. Off topic : 9.3x64 is a marvellous, efficient ammo, I have owned it, but ... not easy to find (manufacturers, retailers even here in Europa, poor choice of bullets)...
