Mads,

My 9.3x62 was my second rifle that I loaded for and was not so easy as my 6.5x55. Here are some things I noticed.

Bullet noses can get mashed in the magazine and unless rounds are crimped or have a lot of neck tension COL can be shortened.

My cure for this was to crimp or use heavier brass with more neck tension (a thou or so polished off the expander)

RWS brass is VERY thin necked. LAPUA brass is excellent indeed.

My Reading dies seemed to be small base and worked the brass hard. I sent lee a fired case and two bullets and got a custom FL die made. Very good indeed. This problem might be my chamber.

No way could I even begin to reach the lands. I forgot about it but the rifle is still accurate. .75 inch or so.

There is no need to load hot.

VVN135 is excellent for 232gr bullets.

Slower powders (eg VVN140) can result in some very compressed loads.

Excellent round have fun.
