Is it just me or is anyone else considering buying a rifle in 9.3x64mm just for the hell of it because of F&D?

I considered buying a 357 sig gun or 38 super because months ago it was cheap in comparison now crazy sauce its $1/round TSU and no 38 super anywhere
Yeah, I posted a little while ago about that and even thought of getting a 9.3x6.2mm and having it machined to 9.3x64mm. Problem is that the only rifles I’ve seen are like $4-$6k Weatherbys. The brass is extremely expensive.
At that price I'd probably go for a 50bmg instead

I was out snowshoeing today and didn’t get a chance to check TS except recently when I saw some Rio. Anything else of interest show up?
Already have that covered. Disappointing, only rifles I've seen in 9.3x64mm are old Weatherby's and even older custom Mauser action stuff.
What I'm hearing is the 9.3x64mm rifle market is up for grabs

Thanks!

$1/round for JHP isn't bad. V-Crown is supposed to be pretty good stuff.
So is the belom stuff any good? Has anyone shot it?
I just got some of the x39 in today, quality looks good for a brand ive never heard.

Got mine in today, in 9mm. I'll give them a try Saturday morning and let you know. They look ok, and from what I read should be OK
Yeah the packaging is a little wonky but it looks good with a nice crimp and annealing. There is no ballistics info for it nor testing but the 9mm did seem anemic with one YT test. Shall I say not anemic but just kinda low on the fps?
cool, I might buy a box or 2 to try out.
I mostly bought them because I like how brass 7.62x39 looks
After all my whining about being out for .308, I grabbed 300 of the Belom 9mm. 
Hopefully it’s a little more in spec than the Scorpio and TSUSA stuff.

Here's a review by someone who did velocity and accuracy tests. His verdict seems to be slowish but accurate.

how did the 9 run? The Scorpio has been getting some negative press with regard to barrel fit and crimping problems. Any probs with the Belom feeding?
Looks like resellers do not like 60cpr brass anymore. Still in stock.Belom 9mm Luger Ammunition 124 Grain Full Metal Jacket - BELOM9A

Didn’t get any 9 from Belom as I’m not buying unless it’s nato in an ammo can.
And reloadable if needed in the future.
Or they have a metric butt ton. Considering the resellers here are looking for .70-.80 cpr for random garbage including steel, I’m sure they’re eating this up as well.

This is what I use for carry ammo in my S&W Shield .45 and it shoots well for me.
