Rapid fire practice with 9.3x62

[stug]

I've been practising a bit with my 9.3x62.

This was just to see how fast I could shoot.

This one was a bit more testing, although I stuffed up the easy one!

Mike you're right.
I like 275Rigby and 404Jeffery but 9,3x62 is my favorite caliber.
All the best.

@spike.t it is a 1924 Mauser Oberndorf Type B. It came from a farming family in Zimbabwe. They left and brought it to NZ. When they moved to Aus they sold it and I am its second NZ owner.
The rifle came with a few 286gr Norma Solids and has quite a few marks on the stock. The rear sight has also been filed out in to more of an express sight.
I reckon the rifle has taken buff and lots of other game, possibly elephant?
The rapid shooting is a huge amount of fun, especially with the targets where you get instant feedback if you hit or miss.

Camels do ?

Camels do ?

I must admit, sitting here in NZ, camel hunting isn't something I'd rush to do. Probably different if I had some in front of me.

Wow looks like you been having fun without me
My 9.3 x 62 is also an old Mauser 1926 in Zimbabwe.

Have changed the stock due to crack and the bore is worn, they tell me I will be lucky to get 2 inch group at 100metres.

These are mates having a go for the first time.

I am very keen to copy the balloon shoot, wish I had seen it earlier before I went to the range yesterday.
My 9.3 always goes with and I am always planning on keeping lots of ammo in stock.
