WAM,

The old 8x57 shoots without the "rainbow trajectory" IF it's loaded to the usual European specs. = American ammo countries DOWNLOAD the 8x57 for use in weaker rifles & for those DIMWITS who CAN'T/WON'T READ THE INFORMATION on what they buy..

Otoh, SOME European companies load the old 8x57mm to ABOVE the usual USA factory .30-06 specs.

yours, tex
