I went to Hornady's website and found that it is just a typo. They're using 286's.

OOPS, post corrected, it was a typo.

I killed a pig a while back with this ammo and it worked great.

Good Luck w/ the Hornady 9.3x74R ammo. Doubt we'll see any in The Fatherland, though.

Managed to get ahold of two Boxes of the Hornady 286 gr. Spitzers. Haven't loaded any yet but as soon as I get around to it they're gonna go into some 9.3x74R RWS cases and see what my trusty Ole Simpson Suhl 20x20/9.3x74R Drilling (w/5.6x50R Magnum Einstecklauf) will do with 'em.

My hoard of 250 gr. Nosler Ballistic Tips is getting low (only two Boxes remaining) after all these years; so looks like a change is in motion.

Hornady's made pretty good ammo and these bullets ought to be just the ticket, too.

I purchased some 9.3 ammo from Graf's and they seem to have the best prices.

Graf's does have the best prices but why buy Hornady when Norma is $10 cheaper? Why would you want Hornady in Deutschland when you can get Norma, Romey & RWS?

Showbart,

You are correct.

I did forget to qualify my response with "Why do we need Hornady 9.3x74R ammunition in Europe when we already havwe a great selection to choose from aanyway?"

Dunno, judt because there would be another option to choose from.......I'm sure a much less expensive option, too.

Norma is cheaper anywhere? Must be for a box of ten.

Dealers run it on sale once in awhile. I have recently purchased both a case of Norma (20rd box's) 9.3x74R ammo for a little over $40 a box, and bought a case of RWS (20rd box's) 9.3x74R ammo for $40 a box. Even the regualar price from Graf is in the low $50 a box for both RWS and Norma. From Graf both the Norma and RWS is $10 a box cheaper than Hornady (only Lapua is more).
