You could send a couple of the bore slugs to LBT (lead bullet technologies) and let them figure it out by making up EXACT bullets for your bore in hard antimony lead with copper base caps to load up yourself. Hawk could also swage some jacketed bullets for you...though, come to think of it you could end up having to bell the case mouth to load them without troubles in regards to the lead bullets. I agree that it would be useful to know the recommended projectile markings. And if they are Bl.G, then you should use lead anyway--don't despair; hard lead slugs with copper base caps shoot great and perform well at 9.3x72 velocities. It's not like you are going to run through hundreds of rounds shooting at gophers...
BTW, I don't want anyone to think I would take advantage of your situation, especially since you are unlikely to find a drilling under $200 ever again! The engraving can be touched up. Barrels can be rust blued (I do it myself!) and if the action is good and tight it can surely be redeemed. I am glad to see the old girl kept in action. LBT bullets have been found accurate in old double rifles that only had a trace of rifling left, a tight fit covering a multitude of sins. Good luck with it, but then again, the offer stands! Steve
