    TSX - You Can't Have It Both Ways!

    Hi, I have used the TSX and TTSX 250 grs in my 9,3x62, with 60 cm barrel, loaded at 2650 f/s, with entirely satisfactory results on Red Deer, up to 250 meters or so, and on Wild Boars at much shorter distances. Never could recover neither of these bullets but the internal damages were more than...

    .375H&H BRNO - A positive gunsmith experience

    Hi deewayne, A perfect 375 H&H rifle, to my taste!!!! In a BRNO 602/CZ550, 23" barrel is, again, the perfect length. Even 22" would be OK. I say this because the action lenght and weight. So, it ends with a rifle with great balance for all uses the 375 H&H is good for! And you have a rifle not...

    Large Ring Mauser sporter price

    Hi, To me, a military Mauser (excluding the late war time made) with the original barrel, any cartridge, in good condition, and their original stock, chopped or not, is a MUCH BETTER shooting-hunting rifle than many sporting ones of the same era. And, specially, than many more "modern" ones...

    9.3x62

    Hi Atticus, In my BRNO ZKK 600 9,3x62 I use R15 for 220 grs (Slovenian FOX) to the various 250 grs bullets. And W760 for the heavier ones. But I also tried W748 for the lighter ones with very good results. In the lots I have, the W748 is 2 to 3 grs slower than the R15. So, I will try it with...

    9.3x62 Ackley Improved

    Hi Zas9.3, I don't know a bigger nonsense to even consider a 9,3x62 AI. Ridiculous. The 9,3x62 was born as an "AI" ....! If you want some more power (but less availability cartridge or cases) go to 9,3x64. Or, for even more power, to a 375 Ruger for standard 30-06 lenght actions. The x64 falls...

    9.3x62

    Hi 112, Well done!!! The constant practice with our rifle is imperative! And out of the range bench! By the way, yesterday I went to the range to check the regulación of the peep sight of my ZKK. I touch the elevation screw and end with the rifle sighted dead on at 100 m with PRVI bullets at...

    .35 Whelen vs. 9.3 x 62mm

    I mean: more velocity with same bullet weight.

    .35 Whelen vs. 9.3 x 62mm

    Hi, To me, is unfair to compare the 35 W with the 9,3x62. Sorry for the 35 W...! Starting from the cases designs: the unnecesesary 35 W long neck, even a disadvantage for a few reasons; the velocity with same weight bullets at similar pressures; to the factory cartridges and bullets available...
