Pick up this 200 round case of PPU PP9362 9.3x62mm 285 grain soft point ammo from Prvi Partizan and stock up for your next big game hunt. The 9.3×62 is a heavy hitting cartridge that does not punish the shooter the way many magnums do, and it has a strong following among hunters who want one rifle for large, tough animals. A full case covers practice, zeroing and hunting with one consistent load.
Each cartridge carries a heavy 285 grain soft point bullet built to expand and penetrate deeply. The factory rates this load at 2,264 fps with 3,244 ft-lbs of muzzle energy. That combination of bullet weight and energy suits moose, elk, bear, wild boar and other large game. This is a hunting load with substantial recoil, not a budget plinking round, so it is best used for zeroing and practice ahead of a hunt and for the hunt itself.
The 9.3×62 was introduced in Germany in the early 1900s and was designed to work in standard Mauser 98 sized bolt actions. It earned its reputation in Europe and Africa, where it has long been used on big game, including dangerous game in some regions where local rules allow it. Today it is chambered in bolt action rifles from many European makers and remains a staple for driven boar hunts. Do not confuse it with the 9.3x74R, which is a rimmed cartridge for break action rifles, and always confirm your rifle is chambered for 9.3×62 before loading. PPU, short for Prvi Partizan, has made ammunition in Serbia since 1928.
This is new production ammunition, not surplus or reloads. Every round is loaded in a brass case with a Boxer primer, so the brass is reloadable, and the priming is non-corrosive, so there is no need for the special cleaning routine that old military surplus demands. The PP9362 case holds 10 boxes of 20 rounds for a total of 200 rounds, enough to set your zero, practice from field positions, and carry the same lot on several hunts. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and keep the boxes sealed until use.
