9.3 x 62 Caliber

Turk,
I have a switch barrel Sauer 200 with barrels in 30/06 and 9.3x62. it is one of the greatest calibers their is. Think of it as sort of a 35 Whelen with good bullets. I have used it on Bear, Elk, and Deer. It is a bit much for deer unless you are after Huge Whitetails or Big Mule Deer. It worked great on Elk and Black Bear and I would have no problem using it on Brown Bear as well. It is still legal in some African countries where 375 H&H is the minimum. Bullets are a bit hard to find, so I tend to stick with the Hornadays for pratice and Barnes for serious work. Any powder that is on the slow end of the burning scale for the 06 works well. I will hav eto check my notes for actul loading data though.

I have been looking for one of the CZ VZ-24 in that caliber for a while now. Consider yourself a lucky fella if you have found one!
Check out Dane Burns' web site at www.burnscustom.com, under the tools of the trade section. Has his thoughts on the caliber, well at least some stuff.

Checked today with my local dealer (one of largest in my area) for the price a CZ 550 FS this model has a Mannlicher stock price of $545.99 Special order.
I think I'm going to order it but something funny was the stores reloading dept. (which is huge) doesn't carry any brass for the 9.3 or bullets. Any suggestion as to where the best place is to mail order both?
Thanks for the information
