Suggested 9.3mm Wildcat

Or change a base to shoulder length variation, like Ackley Improved vs Brown-Whelen vs Hawk.

 

[bruce moulds]

in this case it is not about being done before.
it is about the low availability of 9.3x64 brass, and easily getting a ballistic twin for those who like thgose ballistics.

Just buy a 9.3x62 or a 375h&h then?

 

[bruce moulds]

jp,
the x62 can't compete wth the x64.
the 375 on the other hand is about the same and you are right, stuff is more available for it.

What's the fun in just going with easily available stuff?? I love my oddballs (and my commons)

I did a 9.3 on the 375 Ruger. Shooting the 250 Nosler Accubond @ 2900.

me too, but not loading it that hot. 286 gr Nosler PT at 2730 fps, Accubonds at 2840. On an FN Mauser.

What length barrel? I'm running a 24" using H4350.

So I went the other way. I based the .30 Hembrook Long on the 9.3x64 brass, with the shoulder moved forward and blown out, and necked down to .30 caliber.

So far I am seeing 3450 fps from 165 grain SST bullets using Superformance powder and Tula LRM primers.

Reamers are available from Manson and PT&G, dies from Hornady.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Let me know if you have any questions.

What will that be like on your barrel,it sounds like a real hummer for sure.

 

[bruce moulds]

mozz,
change that pt bullet to a swift aframe or northfork, and it will be a real killer.
you would be surprised at the difference.

@mozze Do you have the reemer for that?

There are so many 30 caliber magnums available why do this. ? Or if just for the hell or it. Ok. Lol

yes, ptg

In the 1920s, DWM offered the 9,3x70, a necked down .404 Rimless. (DWM 569)

Rifles are still available from Reimer Johannsen, Germany.

Lee offers the die set....cases easily can be formed from .404

It’s funny how cartridges of the world does not mention these.

the poor old tug bullet would have been hard pressed to withstand this one.

At this time (the 1920s and 30s), the "poor old TUG" was the spearhead of bullet technology.

[bruce moulds]

that is true, and it is still a good bullet today.
but it is not a swift aframe or a northfork..

Only the 1st day of the year and here we go again.

 

[AZDAVE]

@mooze Would you be willing to sell or rent that reamer?
