I read somewhere recently that the 9.3 is quite likely on the list somewhere for future introduction. It was mentioned that because of the European market Nosler sold more 9.3 bullets then .375.
Don't know if any of that is true, but it makes sense in my head...

I hope the the nosler people reads this topic long and hard
I would like to get a accubond in either 286 grains or 300 grains for the 9,3. I would do fine in a 9,3X62 or the 9,3X64.It no use of shooting peas when you can launch missiles
I sincerly hope that they don't make the bullet lighter than 285 grains, it should been forbidden
That is the bullet I would like to use if they make it, I feel the stadard BT is just a little to frangible at times (shot angle etc.). Other times it kills like chain lightening especially your standard rib cage shot.

The beauty of the 9.3x62 is that it is easy on bullets and does not destroy bullet integrity like the big boomers do...that is how it built its reputation...
I would bet dollars to donuts, the balistic tip will perform to perfection in the 9.3x62 on heavy game, as do most softs...
The only bullet I know that will give up its integrity is the 270 gr. Speer if you stress it..I cut both in half and the Balistic Tip has considerable more jacket, in fact it has a very thick jacket...
I have shot one deer with the Bal. tip in the 9.3 and it made about a 3/4" exit hole in the neck, which I expected...
