Anyone know who has 9.3x57 dies? Like to get at RCBS. Midway's site says special order and $126 for 2 die set. Thats way to much money. Ok Looks like Midway has Hornady 9.3x57 for $57. Thats better than $126 Anyone know of a beter source and price? Are hornaday dies any good or are they crap? | ||

Crap eh?...Well I have a set of Hornady 9.3X57 and I would say they are just as good as RCBS dies maybe just a bit better... | |||

Did they say what was the problem with their Hornady dies?.....Hornady has made improvements on their dies in the last few years.... Redding makes very go dies and I use to buy they them....Now I buy Hornadys as so far they do just as good a job and cost less most of the time.... I just bought two old Husky 9.3X57 a 46 and a 146 and am glass bedding them now....good luck with your 9.3X57....... | |||

GSP7....I have read about the Graf/Prvi bullets as being the best deal on 9.3 bullets...I live in B.C. Canada (born and raised in N.Calif.) and Graf's won't ship here due to U.S. export laws...It can be done but is very time consuming and costly....I like you would love to get lighter bullets(even lighter) say in the 235 gr range that did'nt cost an arm and leg...My plan is to use cast bullets at around 2100fps...that vel. should give me a fairly flat trajectory over 225-250yds. and flatten anything I'm liable to shoot...so far I have'nt found a mold maker who makes a 250gr. or lighter bullet(Mt Molds not taking orders now) so plan on using a sized down RCBS .375/269gr. bullet and a NEI 9.3 mold that throws a 283gr bullet...both RCBS and NEI list their molds as throwing lighter bullets but mine come out as listed above in straight wheel wts.....I have learned how to cast bullets with a softnose and feel that they should do as well or better than most standard jacketed bullets...I think the 9.3X57 will make the most prefect cast hunting rifle for both range and killing power with out a lot of excessive recoil.(8X57 should be great also)....... A fellow 9.3X57 owner killed a moose with one using Speer 270's..very good read here www.canadiangunnutz.com/forum/showthread.php?t=108247 cheers mic | |||
