It was all so innocent. I was looking for a load for my 300wby about a year ago, google lead me to this site. Next thing you know I own a 9.3x62. Then I went and bought another today. I'm not blaming you, but one of you now has to step up and tell my wife. I didn't even mean to buy it, it just happened.

which rifle did you buy?
(you cant just mention that you bought a nine-three without giving us the details )

We need to know the whole story or we can't cover for you. Welcome to the 9.3 family.

Lance

The only thing better than one 9.3 is two 9.3s

It is a gun that I found on gunbroker. Carl Gustav Swedish Mauser built at the Stiga factory. What do you think?

I was looking at that one. Damn near started bidding on i. I finally made myself let it go since I have several other rifles and 'umph!' actions to pay for. I just wish this damn rain would give me a break so I could get 40 hours in.

Well I guess thanks for not bidding. It appears to be a nice rifle. I'll know more in a week.

And don't wish too hard for it to stop raining, just remember the last 7 summers and pray for more. when it stops it may stop for a long time.

Congratulations! You're gonna like the 9,3x62. I bought one in the Classifieds here in 2003. It has worked just wonderfully well! Knocks the daylights out of game and does little meat damage.

I liked it so much I built another one on a VZ.24 action. It's one of those ugly "practical build" rifles that you can take out into the rain without feeling guilty

I know the feeling.
I here looking for something else. Now I MUST finish my 458WM project.

I will make you a deal.

You tell my wife, and I will tell yours. But be warned, she has a new little 9mm and a bit of a temper!

I guess I can join this club. I was just setting here looking through the classifieds and next thing I know I'm buying a 9.3X62. Now I'm all giddy and stuff and cain't wait for it to come in. (I'm not telling my wife. I'm hoping shes lost count on how many theres supposed to be in the cabinet)

Wifezilla says that she's going to shoot me with the next gun that I bring home.

So I'm in the market for a .25 auto. I figure that I can take a couple of those if I have to.
