[QUOTE="ducky, post: 2170292, member: 94420"] Welcome Jurgen! I see you're from Germany, I enjoyed the little bit I was able to see of your country in 1993-94. What do you hunt mainly and what rifle are you shooting? Since your rifle is a .308 it would be easier to stick with cartridges based off the same case. So 7mm-08 Rem and .260 Rem would be some top choices. 6.5 Creedmoor and 6.5X47L would also be good choices with the limited info we have on your rifle. Your other choices probably won't work well in your rifle. Most of your choices are going to be to long to fit properly in your rifle magazine if it's designed for the .308 Win. Some will work but you'll be severely limited on bullet choices having to stick with shorter bullets that aren't as good for long range shooting. [/QUOTE]
