[QUOTE="sable tireur, post: 2206364, member: 27307"] Here is an excellent article comparing the 9.3x62 vs the .35 Whelen: [URL]https://www.bullet-behavior.com/9-3x62-or-35-whelen[/URL] .338-06: [URL]https://www.ballisticstudies.com/Knowledgebase/.338-06+A-Square.html[/URL] 8mm-06: [URL]https://www.ballisticstudies.com/Knowledgebase/8mm-06.html[/URL] I subscribe to this quote as far as comparisons are concerned: [B][I]"There isn't really a great deal to say about it. Everybody found it so generally satisfactory that there wasn't anything to start a discussion." [/I][/B] [I][B]This is how John "Pondoro" Taylor sums up the 9.3x62 in his classic "African Rifles and Cartridges".[/B][/I] If you are stuck with standard long actions and the ubiquitous '06 bolt face (.473) then these are your cartridges. If you can function outside of this range of cartridges then you should consider: 9.3x64 Brenneke 8x68 375 Ruger 338 Blaser Mag 338 Edge All of your cartridges will fulfill your need for a relatively accurate, middle range hunting cartridge. The ones I list will will handle slightly heavier bullets and slightly longer ranges. [I][B] [/B][/I] [/QUOTE]
