[QUOTE="Varberger757, post: 1031903, member: 66992"] If you want to go with system - rifles like Blaser, Merkel Helix, Mauser 03, Mannlicher Luxus or what's however, and you stay in Europe you should use mainly European calibres. 7x57 is unfortunately not any longer common around here, only its rimmed sister 7x57R. 6,5 calibres aren't popular at all on the continent itself, it's only us up in the cold North who still have a big fan community. A suitable and good combo would be 7 x 64 Brenneke (280 AI) and 8 x 68S (300WM). If you are doing reloading you should take a deep look at the 8,5 x 63 Reb. It's a fantastic allround .338 cal. cartridge moving bulletweights from 154gr - 300gr. Very suitable for LR, and all main producers deliver rifles chambered for it. [/QUOTE]
