Can some forumites share their pet 9.3 x 62 loads?

Ray A., can you post your favorite load for the 320 grain Woodleigh?

Thanks!

You just got in under the wire, I'm on the way out of the house!

320 Woodleigh 56.5 RL-15 mild
300 Swift 58.0 RL-15 2453 FPS Chron.
286 Nos. Part 58.0 RL-15 2520 FPS Chron.

All loads in Norma brass, Fed 210 primers. Seems to me RL-15 is the powder for my 9.3x62's...

I am building a 20" carbine as I picked up a Sauer Oct. barreled full rib c ring barreled action, I'm now working on the stock in its original configuration with a few changes like a shadow line on the cheek piece and old piece of French Walnut. It's cute and I will chronograph it and let you know...

Thanks!

That is exactly what I wanted.

Merry Christmas!

Yes, thank you Ray!

I'm eagerly awaiting the arrival of a Husqvarna sporter in 9.3x62...jumping at anything that sounds like a big brown truck!

500grains,
I load my Husqvarna 1600 Special 9,3x62 with 57 grains of Norma 203B, 286 gr Norma Alaska bullet, Norma cases and RWS Primers. The velocity from the 22" barrel is aprox 2350 feet/s.

Mr Atkinson, I must say that i am rather impressed of the velocity you get from the RL-15, maybe worth a try...

One can easily find a Husqvarna with 1600 (Mauser small ring)or Mauser 98 action in the caliber 9,3x62 for USD$ 250 here in Sweden, and if you go for a 9,3x57 i would be much cheaper. it is possible to rechamber the 9,3x57 to the 9,3x62

Husky, thanks.

I have 2 Husq large ring mausers in 30-06. I am thinking of opening them up to H&H length for a 458 lott and a 470 capstick. Do you know if there are any obstacles that I would not face with a military surplus mauser action?

This is the most accurate load I've tried in my CZ-550 .....

59.0 RL-15.....250 Barnes X....WLR primer...Lapua brass

Actually, nothing I've tried has shot too badly, but the above load prints pretty little 3 shot cloverleafs that measure 1/2" at 100 yards...Velocity in my 24" bbl is 2500, according to my Chrony.....
