Want To Buy 9.3x82 Reloading dies
- Thread starter 85lc

V. Veritas: No, not either of those cartridges.
The cartridge is similar to the 9.3x72R but is 0.4" longer for a total of 3 1/4" (similar to the English black powder express cartridges). These were black powder cartridges that lived into the smokeless era. The 9.3x82 was developed to pack more powder into the case than the 9.3x72 could hold.
One of the problems with older German rifles is that there were a number of very similar rounds made between 1880 and 1930, each slightly different. There were at least 4 different 9.3x72s, one of which is the normalized version that will not fit into some kipplaufs and drillings.

I once had an over/under Nimrod combination gun, lower barrel was 9.3x82r
Dies and brass were "fun" to try and obtain

Sir, I think I have been writing to you about the purchase of the HK 639 rifle under an email "Tt Jake." If this is you, then I am truly interested. I am just trying to verify identify. Tt Jake is asking for a cash transaction. No disrespect intended, Just trying to verify who I am talking to. Thank you. Respectfully. Dan

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
