Aug 31, 2021 · A Nosler factory load spread .4665” rim, .472” head. Standard for the 7x57mm Mauser and 30-06 family is .473” rim, .471” head. Maximum case length of this 9.3 is 2.441” compared to the 30-06 length of 2.494”. Cartridge overall length of the 9.3x62 is 3.291”, just a tad shorter than the 30-06’s 3.340”.
The exact bullet diameters are 9.3mm or .366” versus 9.09mm or .358”. The .375 caliber is only a touch wider than the 9.3 bore at 9.5mm. The 9.3x62 has its shoulder 2mm (80 thou) further forwards than standard .30-06 length cartridges and is therefore more similar in capacity to the .35 Whelen AI than the standard .35 Whelen.

Bock’s brainchild uses a .366-inch-diameter bullet, and a case length of 2.441 inches, or 62mm.
