Is the 9.3 x 62 enough gun?

The 9.3x62 is more than enough for anything in North America. If you are hunting coastal brownies, stainless action and barrel along with a good quality synthetic stock will be your friend!
 
I'd use the 9.3x62 on any animal on Earth. Only thing it doesn't do is be a reliable dangerous game stopper. Which it was not designed for.

I'd wager that more African animals have been taken with this cartridge--due to its being chambered in relatively inexpensive Mauser rifles--than with the venerable .375 H&H, with which it shares ballistics for all practical purposes.

Or just buy an R8

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
