.308, 8mm, .338?

The case is more like the .338 Win Mag.

OK, then I'd still say of the three I'd pick the .338 and the .35 cal as my best choice, something like the .358 Norma Magnum or the wildcat .35-340 Wby mag.

Those have magnum bolt face. The RPM has a .473" bolt face.

Perhaps I missed something'..., didn't you say... "The case is more like the .338 Win Mag."? and now you're saying it's .473" which is in the same .308 and .30-06 rim as I mentioned prior, in any case'..., I'll stick with .338 and .358 cal. Cheers.

The RPM is like a stretched out .284 Win. The body is .500" diameter.

I understand what a rebated case is, it was just the way perhaps it was phrased and dimensions.
