    9.3x62

    Exact load I’m shooting through mine as well I love that bullet it worked amazing on Nilgai in Texas!! I used the 286 grain Hornady DGX when I was in Africa last but I’m going to take my 9.3 this July to Africa with the 250 grain Accubonds

    9.3x62

    35 whelen is awesome as well pretty much anything you would shoot with a 9.3x62 can be shot with a 35 whelen the only real advantage the 9.3 has over its is the ability to shoot over 300 grain bullets for dangerous game but most people would just buy a 375 H&H at that point!

    9.3x62

    I've shot 250 nolser accubonds and 286 grain Hornady DGX out of the two 9.3 rifles I have used. I shot my nilgai with the 250 grainers at 210 yards and he didn't go 20 yards. I shot the eland at 50 yards with the 286 grain bullet and it ran 30 yards and fell over, my gemsbok was with 286 grain...

    9.3x62

    This is one of my favorite calibers of all time it has served me well in Namibia for Eland, Kudu, gemsbok, and funny enough duiker may have worked a little to well on the duiker, I have also used one hunting Nilgai in Texas! Everything I have shot with a 9.3x62 has never ran very far if at all.

    What is the largest animal for a .340

    With good shot placement the 270 would be fine but blue wildebeest can be a tough animal to take down with out a perfect shot. I used a 7mm when I hunted for what your after and it performed very well and that is only a tad bigger than your 270.

    2020 Ruger African?

    Just went on Lipseys website they have a 280 AI Hawkeye African listed so looks like that’s what it will be for 2020. Maybe next year they will make the 318 hopefully,

    9.3x62 plains game

    I’d take the 9.3x62. I used one last year for eland, Kudu, gemsbok, and Duiker performed amazing. But if you shoot little animals with it you plan to mount shoot behind the shoulder not directly on it may damage the hide.

    2020 Ruger African?

    Unfortunately I think it’s to long of a cartridge for the action they use on these guns. Would have loved to see it though.
