When I first started shooting there were some cartridges that I'd read articles about that I still remain fascinated about - one was the 8mm Rem Magnum (another was the 17 Remington, for some strange reason).

I've never seen one of these down the range or know anyone that has had one. There was one for sale on Used Guns a little while back and I was sent some photos in response to my query. I know the 8mm cal has never really been all that popular over here and the range of projectile options can be limited.

Does anyone here have an 8mm RM, or had one? What's it like?
