Hi Guys,
Are Highland selling 6.3x62 cases in Oz.
The agent in nz have in their wisdom decided not to market them here.
If they do how much are they.

Last time I was in there, Rebel Gunworks (Brisbane) had Highlander cases for 60-00 AUD I think it was per 100. They have also been advertising Norma cases for just over 100AUD per 100.
A mate of mine uses the Highlander cases in 9.3 and he is happy with them.
Rebel,s telephone number is Brisbane 3391 6744.

Sambar 9.3oldun, if you run into trouble finding cases, sing out. I use my 9.3x62 for Sambar, and started making my own cases, out of 30-06 or 35 whelen, when it became impossible to find any Norma. With RWS at $120 a box, it seemed the thing to do. They seem to work just fine. It is time consuming and a bit fiddly, but not too hard to do.
If you like I can PM you with the details.
Cheers, Dave

BwanaBobHave you thought about buying Lapua 9.3x62 cases? We are talking quality with Lapua and I know a dealer that never seems to have a problem getting them in and they are not overly expensive. The dealers name is John Clapham and his mobile is 0429990067.

BwanaBob is right about Lapua Brass - its premium stuff.
Just had a thought if you haven't had any luck yet - go to
http://www.arrowmark.com.au and you wil find he sells it for 102AUD per 100. Thats the cheapest I have seen it.

ozhunterI use RWS for my 9.3x62 and find it great , I also use LAPUA for my 7x64 and find its also great brass.
Lapua 9.3 cases are very good I like them, I reckopn the highland 9.3 cases would be the same bran that Grafs in the states sells cheaply Parvi pritzen ?? or something similat to that name.

oldunI've won an auction on ebay for 50 new, not reformed, 9.3x62 cases at the very high price of US$20.

Whilst the manufacturer was not stated they look like they are PPU, who are the manufacturer of Highland.
Time will shew of my guess is right.
Tanks for your comments gents.
