Don't remember if it was either 9.3x62AL or Charger who donated to me some non gas checked boolits for my 9.3x57 swedish mauser. Sir's I would like your permission to send a few to veral smith and with some changes have him make me a mold so I can shoot gas checked boolits in my 9.3x57 swedish mauser. Changes would be limited to installing gas check heel on base of boolit and making the as cast diameter slightly bigger to fit the oversized throat on this rifle and possibly reducing the meplat to insure good feeding through the magazine. My throat measures out at .369-370 and rifling bore dimension is .368. slugged the bore from the muzzle and did take a few of your boolits and crush them in the vise to get oversized slug to get throat dimensions. Don't remember if one of these was a standard lyman offering that they used to make but don't make anymore. And I boolit I believe was designed by one of you via the mountain molds site. Regards,Frank
