It's a very popular cartridge in Zimbabwe. One reason is that legality on heavy, dangerous game is based on muzzle energy, and any competent reloader can get the 5.3kJ out of the 9.3 x 62.

The late Dr Don Heath carried one almost exclusively.

It’s a neat thin profile little rifle. I have 2 375s so I don’t see getting into another cartridge myself too many already lol. Prefer Winchester’s and their safeties. If it sticks around I might nab it....
