For those fellow odd-balls that like the 9.3X57 Mauser ("36 Swede") you may find this interesting.
This is the final update before I hunt with this rifle (I think)

From my new 9.3X57 Mauser.

I am full of praise for Nosler Accu-Bond 9.3MM 250 grain bullets, and also for ER Shaw barrels. This handy short rifle is very accurate. Mauser Reliable. It's going to be a wonderful little hunting rifle I am sure.

I loaded some ammo with PPU 8X57 brass necked up to 9.3MM and 49.2 gr of RL15. CCI Primer, and the above named bullets. I got two 3 shot sub-MOA groups with one being under 1/2 MOA. I am VERY pleased. I will chronograph the bullets soon and see how fast they are.

I did re-size some Speer 235 grain 375" bullet to 366" and tried them with loads of 4895 but the best I could get was 2.75"

I also used some Speer 270 grain bullets with 4895 and I never got under 1.8" I will probably try some of these with RL-15 and see if they tighten up. In my Ruger #1 9.3X74R these bullets cut a ragged hole, so they have the potential to be super accurate, but in my new 9.3X57 I have not hit the magic load with them yet.

I e-mailed Nosler about more of them, and here is a copy and paste of their reply:
Steve,

While we have not discontinued these bullets, we run them very infrequently (about once every 2-3 years). Looking at our latest production schedule we are slated to run them again in Q1 of 2018 if all goes to plan.

Best regards,

Nosler Inc.

So those that like this bullet will probably want to grab some in the spring of next year. It will be quite some time after that when they make them again.

Believe it when I see it. I received the same email from Nosler in early 2016. Only then, they were supposed to be making another run in October 2016. So, 18 months later, they are still 6 months out...

That rifle absolutely has the old school "cool" factor going for it. Excellent work Steve. Sure sounds like you are on the right trail for an accurate load. Any new updates on it?

Well it's all done but the checkering, and I am going to take it to the field soon for deer and maybe elk. If I get anything I'll post info.

I'll be waiting to hear how this adventure went. Good luck.

That’s a beautiful rifle! Very classy indeed
