Correct on the bullet choices, but you are missing a few of the lighter ones. I really like the 175 by Sierra. PPu also makes a 175, tho I found it soft. Hornaday`s 170 SST works` very well, and the Barnes 160 TTSX I push out of my AI at 3100 fps. And there`s remington`s 185.
Your point is spot on tho, there`s enough 8mm bullets out there to make most very happy.
