Yeah, there isn't a .308 Win Mag, there is, however, a .308 Norma Magnum.

I would go with the 257 weatherby magnum and the 350 remington magnum.

.300 Win Mag & .416 Rem Mag. 100gr for prairie rats all the way up to 400gr for the recoil sensitive.

Doe Dumper. Hide your head, do you call those cartridges. More like snap caps.Where are you going to get ammo for that 5MM?
I have someting like 25 boxes of 5mm mag. around, and a left hand 5mm mag. to shoot it in... Back in the day, it was waaaaaaaay superior to the 22 win. mag. on bigger animials. (i used both at the same time) These days, you have lots of choises in 22 win. mag. ammo, sooooo....

I have to admit, i sure did like my 5mm waaaay back when...

300-win mag & 375-R.U.M.
I fell in love with the 375-R.U.M. last year.

I used to see it now and then at gun shows but they are pretty rare even there now. It was a good round.

I'm still in shock that there's such a thing as a .458 RUM!!!!

I mean, how impractical can you get? Unless, you're hunting dinosaurs!
