My hunting buddy here in B.C. has been using an 8x68S custom rifle since I met him in 1979. It is his preferred carry-rifle. He has .338's, .375's and most other calibres as well, prefers the 8x68 for his serious hunting. I think his rifle is on it's 3rd barrel now. He also shoots a couple 6.5x68's. I built the 6.5x68 some years ago, as well as a .375 on the 8x68 RWS brass. There is no better brass on the planet for a big game rifle, than RWS 8x68 brass.
: My friend preferred the 196 gr. Norma yelow plastic tipped bullet in the past, but believe he has a whack of others now as well as the Euro 181gr. bullets which he says work well on our big game here.
