Any 9.3x62 shooters out there?

[goblism]

I recently bought 2 sets of swaging dies in 366, didn't have a 366 gun though. I also just bought a CZ 550 American to put the swage dies to use.
Due to the swage dies I can really make any size of bullet from 100-400 grains.

I am wondering what your favorite load is for this caliber!

I am shooting Accurate molds 36-285B mine are 292 grains ready to shoot I am only loading practise/plinking loads with 18 grains of 2400 for around 1400fps accuracy is 1 1/4" to 1 1/2" at 100 metres, will try heavier loads at some time probably with Varget.

anyone else shooting this round?

I have a full stocked CZ but it has been loaned out to a friend for several years and it has only been fed jacketed bullets.

I have a vz24 in 9.3x62 that has a full profile bull barrel but have only shot jacketed thru it

I have (1)a Persian Mauser,that went back to Germany for rework, Now a HalfOctagon.full rib carbine in 9.3x62 in Sporter stock,and (2) a Rem.760 pump gun,rebored/rechambered by Jesse O.....have yet to shoot anything other than the Nosler Fact.Partition load,but that will change soon, as have now on hand a fine selection of Bullshop Dans fine cast boolits...Onceabull

I have a Husqvarna 640 in 9,3x62 but I have not shot any cast through it, I don't have a suitable mold.

I am in the process of working up a Husky 9.3x57 - waiting on PP 8x57 brass to size up and load. Waiting on NOE to produce his 9.3 mold again, I'm signed up. I have 10o0 bullets to start with. This is a long term project for me, if I have any results by next year I'll be happy.

I have a CZ550FS. It is accurate for a full stocked sporter. The 9.3X62 is just about as big a cartridge as I want to shoot out of a sporter weight rifle and still call it fun. One of these days, I'll order a mould for it....

I built a 9.3 x 62mm Mauser on a 98 mauser action I am shooting a boolit from an Accurate 37-258C mold over 45gr. of H4895. This rifle was a project with a friend the idea was not for it to be a cast boolit shooter it has turned out that was.

I hope resurrecting a 2-month-old thread isn't a faux pas: I've had my NOE 366-280-FN mold for a couple weeks and just got my .368 sizing die from Buckshot - this is for a Savage 111 that is from the factory as a 9.3x62. I've determined that 13.8 ~ 19.9 gr of Trailboss is where I'll start but I have a small assortment of A5744, IMR 4227, IMR 3031, IMR 4895, IMR 8208 and A2495 that may be candidates for CB's. There's isn't any data in Castpics so far so I thought I'd open this thread back up to see what, if any, new thoughts about loads are out there.

OK, got to the range with the new NOE 366-280-FN-GC and tried a few loads with my Magnetospeed 'Sporter' chronograph.
The test gun is a Savage 111 Euro w/20" barrel - after slugging the chamber it's about .368 in diameter with about .375 in freebore. The bore is .358 and the groove is .366.
The mould has 5 cavities and all are within 0.5 grains of each other resulting with 292 grains with the alloy I have. All rounds are seated to 3.17" COL and use Wolf LR primers in PRVI brass.
First up was Trailboss with 8 rounds each:



Grains 14.0 16.0
Avg Velocity 1136 1231
Sd 7 6
ES 23 17


Next up was Accurate 5744 with 4 rounds ea:


Grains 33.8 40.0 40.2 40.4
Avg velocity 1867 1796 1873 1889
Sd 32 143 6 5
ES 75 305 15 11

I'll probably try a little more with A5744 but then move on to IMR-4895 & 3031

Sorry, can't edit post - those loads for A5744 were 33.8, 34.0, 34.2 and 34.4 grains
