[QUOTE="Deleted member 46119, post: 1049493"] I had briefly looked at the 8x68RWS as a platform for wildcats. I was very interested as it seems the right size. This was before the 26-Nosler came out and I went down that road. The 8x68 and the xx-Nosler are very close in capacity and both will fit standard long actions with bullets seated long. So far I've found 6.5mm/.264, .277, 7mm/.284, 8mm/.323, 338/8.5mm and 9.5mm/.375 versions. Have I missed any? I am still interested but what do you do about the non-standard bolt face? .510/13mm. Most of the "standard" faces are for .473/12.014mm or "magnum" for .534/13.51mm. Brass is Norma and in stock at Midway. [/QUOTE]
