A person also has to factor in history, romance, just plain cool factor, the fact that it is easy to put into a standard length action without a bunch of additional cost. The final fact is that it Performs and always has like an '06 or 7x57......it really gets the job done well.

Factor in when you bump into someone out hunting and they ask what you're carrying, and you say 9.3x62 and they either get a confused look on their face ( always rewarding ) or they say " man I love that cartridge or I really want one of those ".

9.3x62......all sides are up, there are no downsides. grin
