i use the Husqvarna m46 in 9.3x57 with 275gr WFN GC and 280gr RN GC in IMR4895 with 8x57 Prvi cases necked up. i hunt for 150lbs + whitetails and black bear up close. i have been taking it out for 4 years and i got 3 doe (25+/-, 30ish and 55ish yards). every deer didn't go anywhere but down after the shot. i guess it is going 1800-1900fps, i never chronographed it.

i had the bolt bent, D&T for a scope mount, Leopold 2-7x, Bueler safety, Dayton Traister replacement cocking piece with spring and a recoil pad. the Dayton Traister is a cock on opening, the original cocking piece is a cock on closing. it was just to hard for me to do a COC, i had a stroke about 11 years ago and that left me without the use of my right arm/leg.

i used 286gr Prvi RN when i was fireforming 8x57 Prvi brass to 9.3x57. i also have some 30-06 brass that was reformed and fireformed to 9.3x57. i never knew about Prvi bullets as i like cast. i like the Prvi brass, 7x57, 8x57, 6.5x55 and 7.65x53 Argie.

in my groundblind my furthest shot is 150ish yards, but it is really like 30-40 yards. i set up in the brush and trees.
