Shot a bull moose at 280 yards with 286gr Nosler Partition with MV of 2450fps. First shot behind front shoulder exited out thru upper leg bone of opposite leg. Perfect performance. Moose ran a few feet and my buddy hit it in the spine just above the last rib. He was using a 300 Win mag with federal premium 180 Partition. The 300 bullet broke the spine dropping the bull but stopped in the vertebrae. A third shot at 15 yards into the bulls skull with the 9.3x62 failed to exit and bullet was unrecovered.
The 286gr Partition is my go to bullet in the 9.3x62. Its perfectly constructed for the 9.3 velocity window and is both accurate and extremely hard hitting.
