If not Dragons; in the event you don't encounter Dragons, you fall off the edge of the world.

Interesting that the 9,3X74R is noted by a plug gauge diameter stamp of 108/49.... Had to be made right @ 1910.

You know, I have pondered on that 108/49 Plug Gauge Stamp & I wonder if that is a large enough diameter to be the 9,3X74R; but maybe the 9,3X72R Sauer & Sohn?

Plug Gauge 108/49 would equate to 0.350".

108/49 most often results in a groove diameter of about .362"(using a cast bullet of around .364"). This will work with either 9.3x74R or 9.3x72R Sauer and Sohn. A chamber cast will be necessary to determine the chambering; even then the dimensions are so similar that the rifling twist might need to be determined to verify the choice (the S+S cartridge used a 185-grain bullet calling for a slower twist rifling), as some 9.3x74R cartridges may chamber in some 9.3x72R S+S Rifles.

Yep ... I bought it ... I inquired if it was in fact a 9.3x74R before bidding. And they said yes ... "9.3x74R" ... NOT 9.3x72R ... Since I shoot everything, I wanted to be sure ... I will not be shooting max loads since it is a single barrel, and doesn't need to regulate like a 9.3x74R double rifle.

I didn't know it was talked about here on Double Gun ....I did buy it ... but .. Unfortunately .. it cost $2157 with all the fees ... delivered ... update from doing a chamber cast and and field shooting test to follow. I should receive it later this week.

If I had noticed you were bidding, I would have bid......

But the difference between the 9,3X72R Sauer & Sohn and the 9,3X74R are subtle. 9,3X72R Sauer & Sohn is not the 9,3X72R with which everyone is familiar. Ford has stoked and ignited a handfull of 9,3X74R in a 9,3X72R Sauer & Sohn.
