I now own TrapperEricks old 8x68S and am looking for some load ideas. I have a ton of 200 gr speers and 185 Core Lokts for it. I have lots of powder options but if o could use only 8# jug of Win 760 all the better.

I have a load simulating program called QuickLoad. Just for giggles I worked up a load based on a few guesses. Winchester 760 will work. I'd like to see if an 8 X 68 owner has some first-hand knowledge / loading data for you, but if not let me know and I'll be willing to help out.

Hi Marcus
I'll 2nd limcroma! Booked 2nd trip at SCI last week. Those guys are great. Trying to get hooked up with Peter when he gets to the states if I can break away.

What sling studs do those swivels fit ? They look to be quite a bit wider than the standard modern swivels. They may be just what I need for my Remington 30 Express wide swivel studs. Can you measure the pin diameter ?
