I worked up my 9.3x62 load in 2000 using the original 250 X pushed by 61 grains of RL-15 in Norma brass. I took it to Africa in 2002 and the combo worked wonderfully, porcupine to eland, no surprise. The one and only rifle I was ever able to get an original X to shoot well in. Velocity was 2630 fps in the FN's 24" barrel. I still have the balance of the original 50 I took over there.

Conduct is the best proof of character.
