I am unaware what was used in any factory offerings but I suppose it was VV or Norma propellants. Considerable discussion here => https://www.gunboards.com/threads/handloading-the-9-3x57.645/

Raven Rocks has (had?) Norma brass in stock and is a good company. Like Der Ami, I use 250's and 270's for jacketed bullets. I did pick up a couple of different cast bullets but have not tried them yet.

As for markings, I believe they are identical to yours.

My 286s are vintage Norma soft point round nose. My 250 and 270 are original Speer soft points (I guess I'd have to call them vintage now also). I do have more "modern" 9.3s of various makes and models but these are for my 9.3x74R and see no reason to try them in my 9.3x57 as it is very happy with the first 3 mentioned. I find it interesting that 9.3s tend to shoot to about the same place no matter the load.
