The 9.3x57 case is just the 7.92x57[ 8mm Mauser] case expanded.

Anneal the 8mm case, either expand with a 9.3 expander, or put 10gr Bullseye in the primed case, no wad, bullet or filler, load and point the rifle straight up, fire it and take out a 9.3 x57 case.

7.92-8 mm Mauser cases are cheap, $25 a hundred or less new, likely much less once fired.

Check someone such as Brassman Brass.
