[QUOTE="mgood, post: 1462611, member: 91188"] When I first started looking at 8mm, I was considering necking a 338 Win Mag down to .323. That would be very similar. Thought I really wouldn't see any significant improvement over a 325 WSM. Really thought the 8mm Rem Mag was slightly overkill. (And I'm splitting hairs, because there's not [I]that[/I] much difference in velocity between any of those.) 8x68S Schuller would be just about perfect, but it was just about ungettable in the U.S. (Now brass seems to be becoming more available, so that's a possibility.) I drew up some designs I really like for a wildcat based on necking down a 375 Ruger and shortening it just a bit. That would be a pain in the butt, where necking down a 33 Nosler would be easy. My original target: [ATTACH=full]102052[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
