Need a9.3X64 load with 250 gr Nosler BT
Anyone have a good load for a 9.3X64 with 250 gr Nosler BT. I just finished one and want to test fire it this weekend. I'd appreciate some good starting loads. I'm using the .458 Win Mag brass thats converted to 9.3X64.-Rob

I'm just curious.
How is it possible to convert 458 win mag brass into 9,3x64??

Turn off the belt,turn down the rim,reduce the rim thickness and run thru the dies. Fireform in the gun,-Rob

OK. I got it.

I have just started developing loads for my 64. Perhaps I'll give the 250 grainer a try. Nosler is a very populare bullet here in Norway, at least among the hunters I talk to.

I just made up about 25 rounds of 9.3X64 from .458 win. Had to reshape my trusty treading tool, but they came out great. Took about 30 minutes on the Lathe. I plan to take the 9.3X64 out for its maiden run sunday.-Rob

Rob , don't have a load for 250 grains but check the 358 NM loads with 250 grains as guideline , basically it's a very similar cartidge in diameter and capacity , I reworked 7 mm Rem Mag to 9,3 x 64 with out problem .
