The problem with the 35 cals is bullet availability... the BC/SD of those available, I mean.

The 9.3 has the 320 gr Woodleigh, but the 286s have a great combination of BC/SD/KO.

They are all three awesome rounds though.

I have a 338-06 that I love but intend to pick up a 9.3x62 someday (have a 9.3x57 currently).

Depends a lot on what you're hunting. If you're going after elk and deer and might have a little longer shot the 338 would be my choice, while the possibility of big bears or africa would favor the 9.3 in my mind.

Only in my mind though. I think at the end of the day, as far as the game is concerned, HawkI's final analysis is correct.

Personal taste is probably the biggest factor in answer your question.
