[QUOTE="nicholasjohn, post: 1998970, member: 109113"] The 8mm is a good in-between diameter, and the 8mm Remington Magnum should have been a wildly successful cartridge. Lack of bullet selection was blamed, and that was part of the problem. Lack of marketing also a contributing factor. Your mention of the stock design on the BDL model really rang my bell - that is the absolute worst factory stock I have ever used With its knife-edge comb, a cartridge with recoil like the 8mm Magnum would be way more than most shooters are going to want. My buddy had one in 30-06, and it was painful to shoot. I can't even imagine what the next higher level of recoil would feel like on the cheek bone. [/QUOTE]
