According to Norma they sell most ammo in 7X57R, 7X65R and 9,3X74R. The culture and preferences are abit different in your region.



Interesting. I have never meet anyone with a kiplauf or drilling 30 blaser.



The 6,5X65R doesn't seem to be soo popular in the Nordic countries. The 6,5X57R is also quite rare.

Woli,

Thanks. I've just heard these rumors.

What do you make of the Balser 93? I checked one out awhile ago and I just couldn't get past the looks...

Thank you for the additional information on the 7x75R, woli. It is much appreciated.

The 7x65R is the most popular rimmed cartridge in Central Europe, by far!

The lowly 8x57IRS is slightly gaining as a woods cartridge.

The 9.3x74R is an old and reliable standby, selling well, but more in doubles than in SS or combo guns.

In a new rifle, i would buy: 6.5x65R for flat shooting ( see chamois rifle ), .30 R Blaser, the equivalent of .300 H & H, or the 8x75RS ( liked by the Reichsj�germeister )( equivalent of 8x68S or 8 mm Rem Mag - see Askins ) for World wide hunting.

Of course .243. .308 and .30-06 are selling well. And the bygone favourites , 5.6x52R, 6.5x57R, 7x57R are still in need of ammo...

Regards, Hermann
