A few more...

This was a Brno 22F that I had Griffin & Howe rebarrel to 9.3x62.

All of the 9.3x62 Mannlicher Schoenauers I've owned had 60cm rifle barrels, including the full stock models.

This was a full stock NO rifle. Iron sights only.

This was one of the final Mannlicher-Schoenauer 9.3x62 full stock rifles I had. EAW quick detach side mount. I let Griffin & Howe sell it on consignment.

One of my first 9.3's was this MS 1950 half stock rifle...

I found this one on the web. It's changed hands a couple of times since I had it made. It was a 1952 with a broken stock. I had Griffin & Howe do the metal work. Henry Pohl made the stock. I'll keep looking for others...

Values had gone up. I use my rifles and figured some were better off in the hands of collectors.

I've had over a dozen rifles in 9.3x62 over the decades. The Manlicher-Schoenauers were the nicest. I'll try to dig up pictures. The only one I have right now is a Sako 85 Bavarian Carbine with an S&B scope.

Seeing this thread made me dig out my stash. The 185gr Lapua over 20gr of IMR 4759 are a pleasure to shoot.

A buddy had the Black Bear in 9.3x62. He ended up selling it. I didn't take it because I didn't like the plastic stock. Big mistake. I did end up getting the full stock Bavarian in 9.3. I changed the sights to the Black Bear style.

The Sako 85 is considered CRF. The 75 and 90 are not.

What type of .308 are you looking for? Precision, hunting, tactical, semi, bolt, etc?

They were imported through one of the big names back in the last century. I'm thinking Speer, but I could be wrong. I've been shooting the 9.3x62 for about 30 years now, and memory isn't the best. I imported a bunch from Frankonia back in the day, but they are long gone.
