9.3x64 Brenneke

[V.Veritas]

According to German law yes. The law of the importing Nation needs to be cross-checked too though.

Canada has similar law.

Primers and reloading powders are controlled items. (Can’t be shipped by regular carriers anyway, nor can you fligh with them in your luggage).

Brass is not and can be freely imported into Canada.

For loaded ammo there are restrictions (need a firearm licence and you are restricted to the number of rounds you can import at one time - 500 for rifle and 2,000 for shells if I remember correctly).

It is a shame, Bertram Brass have the 9.3X64B brass in stock but apparently it is not being exported.
Don't know if you coould get together and get some sent over.

9,3x64 is a russian sniper cartridge too!!!

Yes, but theymight be using all their ammo supplies! Should be plenty of spent brass.

I have long wondered why the 9.3x64 has not been the basis for many wildcats, other than the rebated rim.

Man, I did NOT know it had a rebated rim! That is almost enough to kill it.

I think the rebate is less than .010”. I’ll check and report back. Nothing at all like the 284 Winchester.

I just checked 3 pieces of new HDS brass and the rim to base measurements were as follows:

1. .4945. To. .5035

2. .491. To. .503

3. .4915. To. .5035

Moral of the story is, the rebate might as well be non existent. But most importantly is that the more important dimension is the most consistent.

Yes, it is 0.011" which was hardley worth the effort.
