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.
