Loved this thread. Been considering a 9.3x62 for several years and am finally gonna bite the bullet and sent my 270 down to JES for a rebore. Should have it back just in time for bear season and will probably take it to the coast to try on Roosevelts this fall. This thread was a fun read. I plan to load the 258gr Hammer Hunter in my rifle. I really like the monos. The Hammers have all shot excellent in every one of my rifles and load work up is quick and easy too. There's a gentleman hitting accuracy at 2765fps with that 258gr bullet and running ballistics shows it's still pushing 1800fps/2000ft-lbs out past 500 yards!
Should be a fun rifle to chase bears and elk with this fall, especially after reading about how y'all have used yours over the years.
