I just purchased a husky 98 action in 9.3x57 and could either get into reloading $$$$ or rechamber to 9.3x62 with a far greater choice of ammo. I would love for you smiths to post here, PM or email me some quotes. If your not a gunsmith but had this done any leads would also be appreciated. Thanks Joel oshoneyj@yahoo.com | ||

It's been done many times...using the same Husky action...lots of comments on the merits...do a search on line, on this forum, and on other forums...you will find a lot of data and comments. Basically just a rechamber, but questionable as to accuracy due to throat wear. You might find a new pre-fit screw in barrel for it at Lothar Walther for a couple hundred. I don't think the gain is worth the cost as all the reloading components are available much cheaper than doing anything other than a rechamber...and I think factory ammo is available from Norma for the 9.3x57. Again...do an search online search...all the information you seek is readily available. Luck | |||

Throat wear in a cartridge that genertaes 40K psi? Biggest thing you have to watch for is whether the reamer will clean up the existing chamber neck.  Aut vincere aut mori | |||

When going from 57 to 62 you wont have to worry about the "throat wear" since you will be cutting a new throat with the new longer chamber. PM Mike (Z1r) he can do the work and is honest when answering any questions you may have. James | |||

If you reload you can load the '57 to practically the same ballistics as the '62. You should only do this with a 98 action gun. Quick, Cheap, or Good: Pick Two | |||

"If you reload you can load the '57 to practically the same ballistics as the '62. You should only do this with a 98 action gun."  Dont rechamber it, Leave it 9.3x57. PM me. I have a nice Husqvarna m146 someone rechambered to 9.3x62 I might trade your for that m146 9.3x57 if it is a nice one | |||
