We all know about the great 9.3x62 , 9.3x57 also the 9.4 Brenneke, 9.3x74R.....

But i did not know there was a 9.3x63??

RWS made ammo for it for a short while, and only small german( and i presume so me english) gunmakers made rifles for it....

Do any of you know about this cartrige, and does anybody know what the original factory spec for the cartrige was ?

Graysmoke;

Only thing I can find on it is that it was one of a series of shortlived cartridges based on the 7.62x63, aka, .30-06 case that were developed in Germany but that were never produced in any real quantity.

Another here today, gone tomorrow group of rounds.

Current time is 11:23 AM
