Need some 9.3x57 loading data

[M1Garandfather]

Hello!... I have one of the Husqvarna M46 rifles in 9.3.57... I'd like to hear some reload data you found to be good.... I plan on using the new Hornady 286 gr bullet for starters... Then some cast bullets later on...

I have looked at the data on Gunboards.com , but I want to hear from some CGN's also

It looks like H4895 would be a good choice , IMR 3031 , IMR 4064 , H335 and Bl-C2 even.... Not looking for a blockbuster load , just an accurate one that is factory ballistics or a little better...

Thanks

Bob

Thanks , but unfortunately there is no listed data for the 9.3x57 at reloadersnest....

 

[Why not?]

3031 and Ball C2 is what I usually use, Bob. Not difficult at all to get good accuracy at 2400 fps with the 270 Speer.

Let us know how you make out.

There's data here. Don't know if Rob knows what he's about though.

And here. The 280 grain data will do. Steve does know what he's about. http://stevespages.com/356.html
"...no listed data for the 9.3x57 at reloadersnest..." Listed as 9.3 x 57 Mauser. Not using readily available powders with a 286 grain bullet though.

I loaded 48 gr IMR 4895 with the 270 gr speer with good results in my M46. The case is very close to full at 48 gr.

I had chronyed loads of 48 gr H4895 with the 270 gr Speer with my FN M98 at between 2150 to 2180. Shoots very accurately in my rifle...with room to improve velecity-wise.

The Gunboards forums has a Swedish civilian firearms board, that has loads listed for and lots of info on the 9.3x57.

I have 3 (1 Model 46, 1 Model 46A & 1 Model 146) that really like 50.0 gr. of Alliant RL-15 underneath PRVI Partizan 285 grain bullets.

2,265 fps.
