Hello Terry,

if you intend on using the 8mm S/ .323" bullets I have some ideas:

- for testing accuracy I use the Sierra 200grs HPBT Match bullets.
It performs constant and precisely in my various 8x57IS, a 8x60S, a 8x64S and two 8x68S.
I load it in the 8x57IS for about 720-740 m/s with good results.

- the 180grs Ballistic Tip is my favourite bullet for roe deer (up to 30lbs) with a muzzle velocity of about 760 m/s (8x57IS).
I wouldn´t use it on game and short distances in magnum calibers (8x68S and 8mm Mag)

- 196grs Woodleigh Weldcore RN was very good at one hog (70kg), with two bullets in the chest mushrooming and exits. One bullet hit the shoulder blade.
It was my experience that this bullet needs for good precision a faster velocity (beginning at 750 m/s) which you might not receive ouf of the 8x57IS with a short barrel.

- the Sierra 175grs Spitzer SP was very precise in a custom FN 98 rifle 8x64S upto 300 meters.
I have no experience with it on game.

best regards
Rolf
