[QUOTE="Dano1, post: 314072, member: 14209"] I don't have one of these personally, but I do have 2 friends who have older rifles chambered in the .308 Norman mag. They swear by theirs. One is a rebarreled 98 Mauser from WWII even has Nazi proof marks and a Swastika. The other is a Pre-64 model 70 Winchester. I've personally shot the Winchester (Several years ago when I lived near my friend)and it's quite a shooter. It's cabable of Sub-moa groups at 100yds. When .308 Norma brass was unavailable this friend used Virgin .338 Win Mag Brass, necked it down then fireformed it to the chamber as he was target shooting. Brass life exceeded 10 rounds. He especially liked the longer neck, Said it made the cartrige more accurate and he didn't have any unseat in the magazine while shooting. My other friend with the Mauser, got a really good deal on his and has just enjoyed hunting with it. He isn't a accuracy nut, but has said it's really easy to load for and certainly fun. Sorry I cant be of more help, It's interesting to see an interest in such a fine old cartridge. Dan [/QUOTE]
