Norma and VihtaVuori have published data in the past. I do not know if their current load books still show data for it. OK, my VV .pdf copy from 2004 does not have it. You might check the Norma web site. ADI -- the Australian supplier of Hodgdon's extruded powders -- has data for 250 and 280 gn bullets, but it is clearly HOT. I would not use it in some of the older rifles, but for a modern gun it is likely OK. They include a conversion chart showing which of their powders matches those they supply to Hodgdon. This topic has been discussed here before. Try a Search, and you'll find IMR data. | |||

I had a 9.3X57 Husqvarna on a Mauser M-96 action. My load of 52.0 gr. of AA 2520 with a Speer 270 gr. bullet chronographed at 2385 fps. The velocity spread over a 5 shot string was 16 fps. This load was as hot as I went. A reduced load of 51.0 gr. gave 2333 fps. | |||

GSP7. At the same time I had the 9.3X57, I also had an Encore with a SSK barrel in 375 JDJ. The load data that came with the barrel included some AA 2520 loads that worked very well in the Encore. Check the following website (http://www.accuratepowder.com/data/PerCaliber2Guide/Handgun/Standarddata/375Cal(9.55mm)/375%20JDJ%20T_C%20pages%20112%20and%20113.pdf). The two calibers are very similar, so I decided to try it in the 9.3X57. Following good reloading practice, I started low on the 9.3X57 and worked up. There were no pressure signs on the cases, primers, or bolt lift. I shot the load quite a bit, and it worked for me. I agree that the velocities are higher than typically expected in this caliber, but as I said earlier, this load worked for me. | |||

41.0 Grains of AA2460 and a Prvi Partizan 285 SP. No idea how fast they are but it is book max (mild) and shoots 30mm groups at 100 yds. A great round and those Husky barrels were superb. I think of it as a buffed up .30-30.  Aut vincere aut mori | |||

Boha has loaded for the 9.3x57 using Norma Alaska bullets. PM him or maybe he´ll see the thread. I sort of remember him saying that he couldn´t get very good precision out of handloads -but that might just be my memory. | |||

Only load I could find... N-140 From 45.9 grains to 50.9 grains for 255 grn bullet... I think the barnes triple shock in 250 grns would be pretty fun Mike Legistine actu quod scripsi? Never under estimate the internet community's ability to reply to your post with their personal rant about their tangentially related, single occurrence issue.  What I have learned on AR, since 2001: 1. The proper answer to: Where is the best place in town to get a steak dinner? is…You should go to Mel's Diner and get the fried chicken. 2. Big game animals can tell the difference between .015 of an inch in diameter, 15 grains of bullet weight, and 150 fps. 3. There is a difference in the performance of two identical projectiles launched at the same velocity if they came from different cartridges. 4. While a double rifle is the perfect DGR, every 375HH bolt gun needs to be modified to carry at least 5 down. 5. While a floor plate and detachable box magazine both use a mechanical latch, only the floor plate latch is reliable. Disregard the fact that every modern military rifle uses a detachable box magazine. 6. The Remington 700 is unreliable regardless of the fact it is the basis of the USMC M40 sniper rifle for 40+ years with no changes to the receiver or extractor and is the choice of more military and law enforcement sniper units than any other rifle. 7. PF actions are not suitable for a DGR and it is irrelevant that the M1, M14, M16, & AK47 which were designed for hunting men that can shoot back are all PF actions. 8. 95 deg F in Africa is different than 95 deg F in TX or CA and that is why you must worry about ammunition temperature in Africa (even though most safaris take place in winter) but not in TX or in CA. 9. The size of a ding in a gun's finish doesn't matter, what matters is whether it’s a safe ding or not. 10. 1 in a row is a trend, 2 in a row is statistically significant, and 3 in a row is an irrefutable fact. 11. Never buy a WSM or RCM cartridge for a safari rifle or your go to rifle in the USA because if they lose your ammo you can't find replacement ammo but don't worry 280 Rem, 338-06, 35 Whelen, and all Weatherby cartridges abound in Africa and back country stores. 12. A well hit animal can run 75 yds. in the open and suddenly drop with no initial blood trail, but the one I shot from 200 yds. away that ran 10 yds. and disappeared into a thicket and was not found was lost because the bullet penciled thru. I am 100% certain of this even though I have no physical evidence. 13. A 300 Win Mag is a 500 yard elk cartridge but a 308 Win is not a 300 yard elk cartridge even though the same bullet is travelling at the same velocity at those respective distances. | |||
