[QUOTE="Longreach, post: 2964840, member: 3011"] I've been using a 9.3x62 for several years now but certainly not for 'long range' hunting past 300m. It has proven extremely successful on everything from pigs, deer, sambar to Asiatic Water Buffalo which are larger than Cape Buffalo. The comments about thinking about it as a light 375 H&H are correct but only in recoil. A 286gr 9.3 bullet has a higher sectional density than a 300gr .375 bullet. As usual, choose the right bullet for the job and it works extremely well. Ammunition is available from several manufacturers as are bullet weights ranging from 235gr to 286gr. I thoroughly recommend it to anyone thinking about investing in it. [/QUOTE]
