Hi folks
New to the site, 1st post, Very excited with so much shared info available.
Any way , I have a Pedersoli double rifle in 9.3 x 74r that I need load data for some 286gn cast flat nose (swc) w/gas check. These should make for affordable practice rounds.Velosity isn't too important as I will have to play around a bit to see if I can get these to regulate. But I need a good starting load.
I read all the replys to cr17 's post on page 10... re- 9.2x72r .
I was thinking AA5744 may be a good choice ?? I like to keep the case filled when reasonably possible.
Thanks for any help you may be able to share, lookin forward to shooting these.
Ed

Ed, Hodgdon.com has loading data for your 9.3. I would guess that you will need to be near the factory velocity to regulate the sighting. I had this problem with my 9.3 x 57, get a good light load and it wouldn't shoot with the non adjustable sights. A scope fixed that issue. Powder like 5744 and IMR 4759 work good for light loads and so does Unique and 2400. Good luck and have fun.
