In the near future I will be working up loads for a drilling with rifle barrel chambered in 9.3x74R. I am most familiar with the Swift A-Frame, Nosler Partition, and Woodleigh expanding bullets. I am able to load most any bullet for this cartridge but would like to hear from any members that have used this factory load in the field.

Anyone used the Lapua Naturalis in 9.3mm, or any caliber for that matter?

Descent accuracy at 2500+ FPS in my 9.3x74R with the 220 grain version. Would terminal performance be similar to the Barnes TTSX?

Just moving to DM. Yes, please ask your friend if he knows somebody who might be willing to support a persistent hunt in the snow.

Hi Paul,
This is Daniel from Mankazana Safaris.

I saw your post regarding a hunt in Africa. I am sure you have been bombarded with messages and replies from other outfitters, so I will keep this one quick.
I have a feeling we have exactly what you need for a first safari.

If you ever decide to sell this rifle, I will buy it with the dies, bullet, brass, the works. Dan
