I (also) use the 325 gr Norma Oryx in my 9,3x62.
The gun is a Sauer 202 Outback, shoots very well with this classic load:
Norma brass
Cci 200
N203B 55 grains
OAL 82 mm
Have not been able to chrono the load so far...
I can recognize the very same ting from a batch of 222 Rem Hirtenberger brass some 20 years ago... And the problem then, was undersized flashchannels... I had found some 25 pcs of brass on the firing lane, Appeared to be oncefired so they went home to my friendley tumbler for a nice cleaning...
It's quite simple...
The Accubond would be great for hunting roedeer, which is plentifull here in Europe...
And a lot of hunters uses .224 calibers to avoid overpenetrations...
An explosive bullet will ruin too much meat. Hopes this is a satisfying explanation...
Foxes? for my part, a...
Thanks, I cannot complain and I am glad that You did not ask for reloading data, because I have not been shooting the 32-40 since 92'... And that was with black powder..
But when spring arriwes, I will try out some smokeless loads...
super-7,
the 30-30 brass works for sure... Normally Graf&son's have the real deal... http://www.grafs.com/metallic/786
The .321 flatpoint bullet from Hornady works well also in My 1894 Winchester...
That would also be a great bullet for the Europeans that hunts roedeer... That bullet would leave Hornady and Sierra behind... Unless they will be first with a bonded .224...
And still, a 300 grainer Abond in .338 cal would be fantastic...
I (still) would like to see a 300 grain Accubond in .338... But that one was not on the the list so I voted for the next on my list, the .224 in 60 grains...
I would very much like to get my hands on those...
And furthermore, it would be great to both have a hunting and target bullet in one...
Maybe goodbye to Sierra MK? I think so... ( for my part, that is).
How would you compare it to RCBS?
So fare i have had no problems with ordinary full length dies, but nice to know where to look if problems should look my way...
My favorite load for the ol' Sweede is 43,5 grains MRP and a Hornady 160 grains round nose seated to the crimpgroove... It does the same job as a Nosler partition, (deep penetration) but at a smaller price...
