To learn more about popular hunting calibers like the 9.3x62mm Mauser & 375 H&H Magnum visit: https://huntingguns101.com/optin1615146914565?utm_source=YouTube&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=HG101&utm_term=YT&utm_content=93 While they’re more likely to be familiar with the .375 H&H Magnum, most hunters in North America have probably not heard of the .9.3x62mm Mauser cartridge. That’s really a shame because the 9.3×62 is an excellent cartridge that also has some important advantages over the .375 H&H. Indeed, the 9.3×62 was one of the very first medium bore, smokeless rifle cartridges designed for use in a bolt-action rifle. The cartridge took the hunting world by storm and was incredibly popular among German settlers in Africa at the beginning of the 20th Century. The success of that cartridge also helped spur the development of other, more well-known cartridges like the .375 H&H and the .416 Rigby. Due in part to the fact that it has superior ballistics on paper, the .375 H&H has since surpassed the 9.3×62 in popularity among North American and British hunters. However, but the 9.3x62mm Mauser is still widely used in Continental Europe and Africa. Those hunters are onto something though. Just comparing the published ballistics of those two cartridges doesn’t tell the whole story and the 9.3x62mm cartridge is still very highly regarded among hunters for a number of reasons. In this episode, I conduct a detailed analysis of the 9.3x62mm Mauser and explain why it’s such an effective rifle cartridge for hunting big game all over the world and why you should consider hunting with it.
