Hello everyone

Welcome to AH Roatmtn.
9,3 x 62 is my favorite caliber.
I am always thrilled to meet other people who love the 9.3 x 62 Mauser. With 286 gr Barnes XBT and 58 gr of Big Game powder, I am getting 2500 fps +/-. This is in the same level as the .375 H&H magnum. I love my 9.3 so much I put a custom stock on the rifle. Beautiful! Shoots 1/2" to 3/4" (inches) groups depending on bullet style and maker. The 66 gr Big Game Powder load comes from John Barsness. He is the well known gun writer for Handloader and Rifle Magazines. This load works!

Happy to have you aboard Roatmtn! Looking forward to your input.

it sounds like you’ve had a couple of successful hunts. It never to late to tell your stories. ;)

Thanks for the compliment! I have been a outdoorsman all of my life in North East Tennessee. Trout fishing, deer hunting, and especially hunting the numerous ground hogs. They grow really big here in East Tennessee and are known for their savage attitude(ha). Going to to the rifle range and shooting the targets with the .270 Win and 9.3 x 62 is especially enjoyed as I imagine I am getting ready to pull the 9.3 trigger on another cape buffalo.

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
