I've been searching for some info on this cartridge and have found much more data on the rimless version. Just wondering if the rimmed version can be loaded using the rimless data, or how much it should be reduced? Mostly would need one good barnes tsx load, as I see norma has some loads for other bullets using their powders. Might try the 196gr oryx as well.


Considering a Merkel k3 jagd in this round, just seems more interesing than the 308 or 30-06. I would imagine the gun is a pretty strong platform, as it is available in the 300 win mag.

Any experiences / tips with the 8x57 rimmed are appreciated.

Thanks!
