Factory solids in 9.3x74R

Who all makes it, if anyone (and not A-Square, please).

Dave, Do you know if they have actually come out with a solid at Hornady? The last time I talked to them they said it would be some time next year. They said they were working on a 300 gr. solid and I suggested a 286 gr. might match up better with what most people shot in their various 9.3's.

I'm sorry guys. I didn't read the topic line correctly. Hornady makes a factory load with a 286 grain Soft and it is and excellent bullet, perfectly suited for the 9,3X74 velocity. However, no factory solid yet. My bad.

The 9,3x74R loads from Superior, with the 286 Nosler Partition, 286 Woodleigh Soft and the 286 Woodleigh Solid, shot great in my double.

Very accurate.

Thanks, folks. I'll get a box of the Federals and Superior, too and see what's best.
