9.3x62mm Groove Dia???

[no34570]

Hi Fellas
I have a Zastava LK M70 PS rifle in 9.3x62mm and I slugged the bore the other day,getting ready to try some cast in it. I have an order with Blammer for the 9.3 groupbuy and also thinking of getting a mould off Tom,at Accurate moulds.

My slug came out of the barrel at .3666-.3669,that was with about 3 slugs.

Ok,now should I get a sizing die for .367 or .368,going to get one off Rick(Buckshot)??
I was thinking for going to the .368,for I heard that you should go at least 2 thou over actual diameter,any thoughts ???

Thank you in advance:)

double check your neck area and see what will release.
you know your bbl dimensions now look at your throat shape.
between the shape and the room you have to release the boolit from the case you should have a good idea of shape and diameter thats best for you.

For a .30 cal or .45 cal rifle, most find that .002 or .003 larger than the measured groove
diameter works well.

Tell Rick what alloy you will be using and you will get a die that is exactly on.
