John Ricks9.3x62 in Various Actions, feeding check
I ran 9,3x62 RWS and Norma factory loads through the following actions, worked perfectly in all:
Mausers: 1908, 1909, 1912, Several Orberndorf's, a 1951 and a 1957 FN, and a couple of Mark X's and the Checz 24.
1903 Springfield
Pre and Post 70 Win.
A Whitworth 375 and a Whitworth 458.
So, pick your action, they all work.

500grainsHow about a Win Model 54? Should be the same as M70?

AtkinsonJohn,
Thats been my experience with the 9.3x62 as it is basically an 06 case, same for the 35 Whelen and 338-06..Ocasionally they need some trim work...
500,
Yes a Mod 54 Win will work. Boy, I'd like to make a iron sighted 9.3x62 out of that slick 54 with that schenable forend and low comb stock...Guess I better start looking..As a matter of fact Win. made the 54 in 9x57, and I have been told a few in 9.3x? probably 62

500grainsI have a Win M54 in '06 with a smooth as silk action and a stock that looks like it was gutshot. It's ready to be upgraded.
