reloading for the 9.3x62 using 250 grain ttsxs

[Nate475]

Hello fellow gun nutz i was curious if any would share any reloading recipes for the 9.3x62 using the ttsx 250 grain .

I too am interested in load data for some 250gr DGS. Been meaning to post this request

250gr TTSX & Re17 @ ~2400 fps mv safe in my rifle only.

H4895 gives me 2600 fps and great accuracy in my CZ550.
Fed 210 primers & Lapua brass.

Barnes data lists 250gr TSX: https://barnesbullets.com/content/barnes-loaddata/rifle/366/9-3x62mmWeb.pdf

Data might be adaptable for 250gr TTSX it's a rather long projectile for my rifle takes up significant case capacity prefer 250gr TSX.

Interesting. Thanks for the picture!

CFE223 is what I load 250 grain accubonds with and I get 2600+ fps. I think it would be viable with the TTSX, but you would have to work up a load right from scratch. With the longer bullet, etc., a ball powder is nice.

Any concerns with the TSX/TTSX opening and killing quickly at 200 yards with 9.3x62 velocity?

Saskcop, are you using magnum primers with ball powders in this size case?

A friend speculates that the 250gr 9.3 projectiles should be designed to expand less with the higher velocities. His observations with Laupa however.

Anyone loading 9.3x62 for in a semi auto?

Yep. I have used S&B magnum primers the entire time with my load development. No pressure signs. I am using a CZ550 Lux with 23.8" barrel.

Velocity depends on distance. Will you shoot an animal at 50 yds, or 250 yds? Will your bullet work at both or do you need to think about it before you pull the trigger?

Just saying there are many variables and muzzle velocity is not the final consideration.
