All guns are different and effect of load data differs… but my best results were with H4831SC and close to 100% fill rate or even slightly compressed. Setting depth and crimp also affected the out come. Start low and build up you loads to measure what you get in your rifle.
I have loaded the 300gr TSX to 2950-3000fps with H4350 (tough but doable) as well as with H4831SC… even shot smaller stuff like roe and fallow deer with it. Mainly used for bigger PG… Of course complete overkill but fun to have a load that can kill basically anything on earth… even at a distance.
My two-gun battery would be 2 out of these

Blaser S2… one 470NE and one 9.3x74r… barrel interchangeable so should count as ONE rifle
Husqvarna Custom 338 WM… love this rifle for some odd reason.
Sauer 202 9.3x62 (also have barrels in...
I have done my combi case (double & bolt) this way in the past.
I am just about to change case and I will for sure flip things around to ensure that the serial numbers are visible w/o removing the weapons from the case for identification
My first trip to Africa was for plains game in Namibia. Great trip really enjoyed it and brought home all my trophies.

Next trip to Zimbabwe for me will for sure be with them.
I had the pleasure to hunt with Dalton (Dalton&York Safaris) in October of this year. Did a great two-site hunt with 7 days in Chewore South (Tuskless and Buffalo) and 5 days in Omay (Hippo and PG). Would recommend anyone who has the possibility to hunt two areas to do so… like being on two...
Never thought I would say this but don’t go for the 9.3x62 unless you want to be a true purist… just to be clear… I believe that the 9.3x62 and the 9.3x74r (depending upon what rifle one owns) are the best caliber in the world.
6.5x55 (instead of the 270)
8.5x55 (keep it, unless it is traded...
Great to see/heard that it is appreciated. I have found that writing these report help me sort out and bank my memories from the trip in a better way. Furthermore, (with the risk of sounding pretentious, which I am not) I hope that my trip can aspire and/or help a fellow AH member who is...
