I left a message on his website a few months back and did not hear back from him so I assumed he was not interested. I use his 375 and 30 cal bullets and am glad to have them available.

I know you guys are busy and since I won't be needing the 9.3 mm bullets until my 2020 spring bear trip I figured I had time to see if you would come up with them. I like that the 9.3 bullets you have are the Sledge Hammer as I hunt in somewhat densely forested areas and the shots are close.

The bear I got this year was with your bullet out of my 375 Ruger and the bear seemed to be impressed with it. The 375 Ruger is a great bear gun the 9.3 x 62 is not much different for the ranges I hunt, the bears will not realize any difference between the two bullets, dead is dead right.

Thanks for your replies and support of the shooting community,

Congrats on the elk! I got a daughter on the way and i couldn't be more happier to teach her about shooting, hunting and fishing! Thanks for the good post
 
I just moved to MT and had a .338 Edge built. I've been shooting 300gr Berger Hybrids and the rifle seems to not care for them very much. Now that I have the area in Butte to stretch the legs on this rig, I'll need to test new bullets. Rocky Mountain bullets seem to be a head turner

If you have a 9 twist, the 285 Hammer isn't a bad option

My edge will shoot sub .40 @100 yards with 260 grain hammer hunter. Going to try them on muleys in Nebraska in 2 weeks. 88.5 retumbo @ 2816 with 28" proof barrel.

9.35 should be sufficient. I Shoot 300's in my Lapua with great accuracy. The problem with the 300 grain in the edge is seating depth. Even seated out to 3.98 the 300 is seated very deep.

The hammer monolithic bullets are a different animal. The twist rate he states on his site are a MINIMUM. A 9.35 will not stabilize the 285. He could go with the 260 hammer, but that is it.

I agree. 285 grain and higher require a faster twist rate due to they are longer
The 260 grain will kill anything that breaths. Rich, the hammer bullet founder states he has taken all African game with it.
