The 550 Carbine is a reliable and versatile platform that adapts easily to the wide variety of hunting methods and locations the traveling hunter is exposed to when pursuing different species across the globe. With a 20.6” barrel it is compact enough easily maneuver with it in a blind or when hopping out of the safari vehicle. The American pattern Kevlar stock is ultra stable with a full length bedding block, and while it is designed to be used primarily with optics, it is equipped with adjustable back up iron sights as well. If the scope should be damaged, or you find yourself in thick cover or hunting close fast moving game, the short sight radius of the 20.6” barrel helps you get on target quickly.

The Below Information Has Been Provided From Our Gun Caliber Dictionary And Is Meant For Informational Purposes Only. It Is Not Intended to Describe The Unique Specifications For This Ammunition.
The 9.3X62mm (9.3X62mm Mauser) was designed by Otto Bock for Mauser in 1905. The 9.3mm (.366-inch bullet) is the European answer to the 375. The 9.3X62mm is the most popular of numerous European 9.3mm cartridges, designed to equal the performance of the earlier 9.3X74R, but in bolt-actions. It fits easily into a standard (30-06-length) action and with a 286-grain bullet at 2360 fps is a powerful and effective cartridge, yet fairly mild in recoil. In America it is often stated that the 375 is the minimum for dangerous game, but in most African jurisdictions the actual minimum is more commonly 9.3mm. The 9.3X62mm is very popular in Europe and is becoming popular in the U.S. It is an excellent cartridge for North America's largest game and can be considered a sensible minimum for Cape buffalo. —
