9.3 X62 brass and bullet powder recommendation

You mean the Interlocks are not bonded?

The interlock is not a bonded bullet.

No they have an interlocking band but are not bonded.

You are correct, did some fact finding and it seems two of the bullets in the weight class that are bonded are the A-frames and NF Spitzers.
I'm not sure about partitions.

As far as I know the Partitions are not bonded and rely on the “H” mantel to hold them together. I could be wrong but I’ve never seen anything written about them being bonded or not.

You’re not wrong. The Partitions are exactly as you describe them. The only bonded bullets Nosler has are the Accubonds. They are a more advanced ballistic tip, in essence.

I like Norma Oryx 285 gr. bullets the best in my 9.3x62. And Norma or Lapua brass. Just wonderful performance on Bears, Elk, and Plains game up to giraffe in size.

There have been several comments in this thread about using CFE 223 powder in the 9.3x62. It is one powder that has remained easy to buy in Canada during the current shortages. I'd like to try some with 285 gr. Norma and 270 grain Speer bullets. Can't find published load data. Does it exist? What loads to you use with CFE223 and those weights?

I've used CFE223 in my 9x3x62. i get 2490 fps out of my loads with 286 gr a frame, no pressure signs

Interlocks are not bonded, they are interlocked by the jacket into the lead and are a decent bullet, but not generally considered a premium or super premium bullet. I like them for most hunting.

What would you consider a super premium bullet?
