In days gone by the norm here was 7x57 (R), 7x64, 8x57 and 6,5x57 (R) in the mountains...then the 30.06 began to catch up, followed with .308 and 300 win.mag...

Nowadays .308 prevails between locals, among clients 30.06 and 300 win mag with an odd 300 and 270 wsm is the norm.

I carry either 8x68S for serious work + 9,3x62 for tracking wounded game and 9,3x74R for pleasure when possible.

I find it funny how things work. To me I would take a 7X64 or 8X57 for hunting anywhere over a 30-06 or 308. Yes I am a bit weird
