9.3x62

[Gert Odendaal]

I have been extremely fortunate>>>Yesterday a member on my Whatsapp fire arm selling/buying group sold the9.3 Journal 600 pages book to me as well as the shorten version of 300 pages for only R700.

You will enjoy the book.

The 9.3 is easy to load for. I have shot a lot of stuff with the x62.

The two best powder I have found so far are Ramshot Big Game and RL-17. I haven't tried CFE223 yet but have talked to a number of folks that have had good luck with it.. Bob's 35W works well with the CFE and both rounds have a similar case capacity.

Dave I have sourced some S335 propellant , a South African product. We are still able to get this propellant still in SA. At some time in the near future I will turn to imported propellant .

here is my favorite 9.3x62, a CZ550 that I bought from fellow AH member Postoak with the waterbuck that I took last summer in Zambia. I had a AHR three position safety, Timney trigger and fresh bedding job. Sub MOA gun all day with about anything I shoot through it. 250s to 300s from 2200 to 2600, it doesn't care. Waterbuck are hardy critters even for the mighty nine three. Mr. Rodd I hope you are doing well, its been awhile.

I was fortunate to get hold of two books about the history of the 9.3x62 caliber ...the full volume 600x pages as well as the shorter version /compact version of 300 pages ...I am looking forward reading this book.

Great buy Gert.

For sure this was really a lot of luck ...I really am enjoying these books. It makes the 9.3x62 Musgrave so much more interesting to own and shoot .

Great, if I am able to get in touch with a visiting USA hunter to bring me the large Hard Cover color printed version to South Africa it would be great.

Ugly bolt knob.

Am actually waiting for today's delivery: a Frankonia Favorit driven hunt rifle model 98, 9,3x62, Zeiss 1,5-6x42, reticle 4 which I won at eGun for a song. Has a little surface rust and obviously a dry stock. Copper wool, Ballistol and stock oil on hand for a workover.
Will be our daughter's gun for driven hunts and the moose hunt in Sweden in october.
My own Musgrave 9,3 is on transition from the original stock to a full stock, which I won online. It is topped with a Zeiss 3-9x36. Can't wait to get it back from the woodworker!

Ugly bolt knob.

That's actually a rubber slip on bolt knob, makes it easier for me to cycle rounds faster

Nice day to take the 9.3x62 out after a winter in the safe. Practice rounds using 285 gr PPU over w748 @2300fps. Nice to be back on the sticks again — love shooting this rifle.
