    Case gauge for 9.3x62mm?

    I've been searching for a 9.3x62mm case gauge for manually checking brass after FL sizing. Wilson simply calls it a Case Gauge, Hornady calls it a Cartridge Gauge, and Lyman calls it a Case Length Headspace Gauge. None of these vendors offers their product in 9.3x62mm, and the Hornady custom...

    Anyone been on the Hornady Ballistic Calculator web page lately?

    Been trying the last couple of days to run some numbers but with no luck. What's worse, Hornady doesn't say "down for repairs", but instead say "404 Page Not Found", which is not good. I pinged them, but I suspect I won't hear back until after Turkey Day (as in bird, not country).

    Yet another bonded bullet recently made available

    I've been waiting for this one for a while now... Norma finally offered their 30 Cal 180 grain BondStrike for handloading. If it's anything like their 6.5mm 143 grain BondStrike, then I'm going to be a very happy camper when they show up at my door, and just in time to whip up an elk load too...

    Prvi 9.3x62mm Ammo Showing Up Online

    Just a heads up - Looks like the Prvi shipping container must have recently dropped in the U.S. as their 285 grain SP factory ammo is popping up across several retailers. I've found this ammo to be quite good, at a relative bargain, and with accurately stated muzzle velocities.

    I've an upcoming early morning arrival to OR Tambo and I just had a thought (rare that those are) that SAPS office hours likely don't include being open around 4am. Anyone know what the office hours are?

    RL-17, 285 gr. Privi, 9.3x62mm Inquiry

    Finally got some RL-17 in and planning to work up a practice load using the 285 gr. Privi SP in my 9.3x62mm GRT predicts ~62 grains would get me ~2450 fps MV from a 24" barrel and stay easily under max pressure. This is based on case volume of 75 gr. H2O. I'm planning to start at 58, 59, or 60...

    Flight Options for Next Trip Over

    Hello all, My last trip to Joberg was before the pandemic broke out and it was Delta via Seattle - Atlanta - Joberg and back. Easy peasy, but that was awhile ago. My next hunt is April 2023 and my travel agent is coming up with either United via Seattle - Newark - Joberg, or Qatar via Seattle...

    Looking for a 9.3x62mm case length headspace gauge

    My usually adequate Google-fu has failed me. Just can't locate where I can buy a case length headspace gauge for the 9.3x62mm. I've checked all the usual online suspects, but no joy. Anyone have a lead? Thanks, Pud

    Disappointing PPU 9.3x62mm Brass

    Picked up a bag of PPU 9.3x62mm brass. 22 out of 50 wouldn't fit the shell holder (RCBS #3). That's the first and last time for me....

    Cape Buffalo cow hunt with 9.3x62mm recommendations?

    It's time I added a Cape Buffalo to my 9.3x62mm. I love cow hunts because they're affordable for me, making more frequent hunts possible. How far beyond SA do I need to go to make this happen? Any recommendations I should look into? Thanks, Pud
