9.3x62

[Win/64]

Is the M96 action strong enough to handle the 9.3x62? Or should it be reserved for the M98 action?

I believe there were M96's chambered in 9.3x62............I could be wrong though.

It's probably OK but you might be pushing things a bit. If you have a choice go with the 98 just to be that much safer - it can handle the higher pressures that the larger calibers generate. The 96 action would be a good choice for a light weight rifle in a suitable varmint caliber.

Thanks Snow Dog thats what I figured.
