Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Show Us Your 9.3

9.3 anything, including 9.3X72R and 9.3 BS.

The only one I have now is an FN action Husqvarna. I added a Buehler safety and a Timney Sportsman trigger, 2.5-8 VXlll, and QR mounts, and LW alloy hinged floorplate. It's a tack driver...but what 9.3X62 isn't?




The bottom gun is the 9.3. Second from the top Husqvarna or the one up from bottom will be off to J.E.S. to be changed from 8X57 to another 9.3X62 for my grandson.

Just a lowly model 70 stainless classic I had rebored to a 9.3x62. Don’t have any good pictures of it.

No pics at the moment but a plain jane FN actioned 9.3x57 Husqvarna 146. Has original owner’s name lightly scrawled in the grip cap. Not seeing open sights like I used to so struggling with wether to drill and tap for a scope but that requires a new bolt handle and safety too. Other option could be a Redfield peep but if I’m drilling holes in an original I feel I should go all the way. Don’t know how much collectability these have nowadays?

I could show you a picture of my Sako 85 Krieger 9.3x62 barrel I took off when I went to the next to my 280AI…

Husqvarna 46A 9.3x57



CZ 550 9.3x62



Ruger No. 1 9.3x74R



Mauser 99 9.3x64



Sako 85 Grizzly 9.3x66

Lots of used Huskies floating around. Unless it's in immaculate shape, I'd make it huntable for your eyes.

My Cliff LaBounty rebored FN Mauser.



The same rifle in 2002.

Heretic!

So, you're saying you like the 9.3X62, or did I miss something?

That top one with the Swede action came from Simpson and was once a hunting club gun in Sweden, I'll wager. It's a sweet clean little 9.3X57, a nice round to shoot and a good killer. The three middle guns in my photos, the 8 Mausers, were all hunting club guns. Simpson buys them in lots, and I buy lots it seems.

I tried a CZ 550 9.3, but it hammered my face. Didn't fit me, but it sure shot tiny one-holers.


The best shooting rifle I ever owned, and there were many, was a simple custom 9.3X62 on a VZ 24 action with a Timney trigger and moderately heavy Bauska 24" barrel. It was too heavy to carry up up into our mule deer country and went to a guy who would use the gun.

My husky 146 or 46a can't remember which. 9.3x57, almost too pretty to hunt......almost

Really liking the figure in that stock!

My 9.3x62mm is a Lipsey's that going on its first trip across the pond in a couple months to put the Big Sneak on a few Cape Buffalo cows.

That’s a beauty!

9.3x62 American Hunting Rifle (AHR), CZ. Very accurate.

Husqvarna model 46A in 9.3x57mm Mauser. I'm enjoying this one.

It sure is!

Ruger?

I owned two of the Rugers. Poverty dictated that they got sold. A good member here got one, and I'm happy he ended up with it.

I've been looking at the 46A Swede action 9.3X57s at Simpson for a while and might sell something to buy & try one.

Sure is a clean one.

Not the greatest photo, but a x62 that I'm playing with/building. Winny 670 rebored by JES. Jeweled the bolt, pillared, bedded (whole channel) and floated, reblued. Stripped the stock, stained it with saddle dye, oil finish. Last two items on the list are 1) installing the new Williams fiber optic sights and 2) rebluing and then attaching the period correct front sight hood.

NICE re-work!

I see that AHR isn't doing CZs anymore and refer people to Matrix. https://www.matrixgunsmithing.com/
