Default RE: about 8 mm Rem Mag

ORIGINAL: BareBack Jack

I would look at the 338 Win mag or any of the strong .300's.Like stated above ammo is tough to come by the for the 8mm Rem.You might also want to try the new 325 WSM it is a 8mm dia. caliber I think,if I'm wrong I'm sure someone will correct me.

It is an 8mm as well... They named it 325 to get away from the 8mm stigma.

The 8mm Remington Mag, in theory, is one of the best cartridges ever developed.

It is a true western hutning gun...

Problem has always been BULLETS. Most guys handload but not many make their own bullets. The bullet selection sucks. Maybe with the 325 being out, the bullet selection will be better.

However, let me put it this way, if I bought a 325 or an 8mm mag... I'd find out what bullets shot well out of my gun then buy 500 of them and store them for a rainy day.
