Want To Buy 9.3x82 Reloading dies
- Thread starter 85lc

V. Veritas: No, not either of those cartridges.
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.

I once had an over/under Nimrod combination gun, lower barrel was 9.3x82r
Dies and brass were "fun" to try and obtain

At Kalahari Safari, the Small Things Are the Big Things
The thrill of the stalk. The stillness of the wait. The age-old rhythm of the hunt.
It’s not just about the size of the trophy. It’s about the stories that will be told for years.
We believe the memories are the true prize. The small things are the big things.
And we’re proud to offer a hunting experience that honours exactly that.
