I just wonder how the 208 AMAX compares.


Agreed .... It will really come down to what platform/caliber I get a good deal on. I have the donor for 300 WSM, but I'm keeping my eyes peeled for another /06 to lighten up. Or, I could always restock/rescope my current /06 since it has already been re-worked.

I would not hesitate to use 208 Amax if I was not planning to be in bear country. I can't get warm and fuzzy on Amax/Berger style bullets when bears are around.
