[QUOTE="4xforfun, post: 237638, member: 9172"] I think the biggest drawback with an 8 mm is bullet selection, or lack there of. You will be very limited on your bullet selection. Another problem would be cost. This is a wildcat.....no factory dies. Custom dies are not cheap!!! Best case would be a bushing die with proper bushings. I did some costom loading for a 7mm-300 wby and simply used my 300 wby neck die with the proper bushings. I don't know that this would work with what you want. As far as FL sizing a wildcat with a standard die......I think you would be out of luck. I agree with the other guys....7 stw, 30 378, 33 378, or a Lapua. But, if ya gotta do it....let us know how it works out!!! Good luck, and have fun!!:D [/QUOTE]
