Marc_Stokeldwhat exactly is the 9.3x66?
I am stocking and doing some metal work on a CLient's 9.3x66 Sako. He had someone barrel up his action and he worked up loads in a donor Mauser stock and liked it, so he decided to go to the next level. I had never heard of the caliber before, and now I am seeing people mention it here in the past couple of days. So what exactly is this cartridge about?
Also, where can you get brass in the US? He had some friends bring him cases when they were returning from Sweden, and he knew of no US retailers. ARe there any now?
Thanks!

Jim KobeLawndart, where are you when we need you. I barreled up two actions for two different guys. He was one of them and can give you all the facts; even the one about the bad original design print.

boom stickthere was a huge and informative thread titled 9,3x66 the best compromise or something to that effect. do a search and the biggest one is it. it aaaaaaaalmost duplicates moderate factory 375 h+h loads...basicly a longer 9,3x62
www.z-hat.com has the brass and chambers rifles in it
