Norma 9.3x62

I'm like someone posted above, wish I would have discovered 9.3 earlier in my gun building life. I am in the process of putting one together on a Dumoulin Mauser action. Need to get my barrel on order, will try to do that today. Years back a buddy of mine bought a Husky Mauser in 9.3x62, it was neat old gun. He said I could walk across Africa with this. At first the round didn't do anything for me, but once the 9.3 light went off, it was like why don't I have one.

john taylor said he would walk across africa with a 22 rimfire, but i thing a 9.3 would make you feel a little better.

@bruce moulds thank you for the reference, I checked it out. I wonder how long before savage or one of the aftermarket companies have the steel insert available.

@Bob Nelson 35Whelen the whelen barrel has no maufacture on it and is marked 35 Whelen IMP, 24in long, and 1in14 twist
 
Got a few boxes from Graf&Sons on line a while back.

Old stock, w/o the crimping groove.

Might keep an eye out.

finally got some from Midway a few weeks ago.
 
I wish Norma USA would put out some 9.3x62 Vulkan ammunition into the US market!
Midway and Graf's both have Oryx, but nothing else in stock. Graf's has 232, 285, and 325 in stock


I was finally able to buy a couple boxes back in July

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.

I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).

Very interested.

Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?


I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
