Is anyone aware of a source for 9.3mm cast bullets (e.g., for a 9.3 x 62)?

Many Thanks in advance!

9.3mm molds are hard to come by. You can make a 9.3mm bullet by casting a 0.358" bullet and rolling it with paper. Search the Smokeless Paperpatch forum. All the information you need is there. I cast a Saeco 0.358" 245gr bullet for my 9.3x74R rifle. Thin tracing paper works well for patching. The finished bullets measure 0.368". Expand the case neck with a Lyman 9.3mm M-die before seating the bullet. This system for 9.3mm bullets is hard to beat. No custom molds, sizing dies, gas checks or lubricant is required. It sure beats paying Barns a dollar each for his bullets. They shoot well and lay out the bigest wild hogs.

You will need to hone a 0.358" Lee sizing die to 0.368" if you use thicker paper.
