  • The 8 x 64 S is a classic rifle cartridge that has been around for nearly a century. This round was first developed by Mauser in the late 19th century and continues to be a popular choice among hunters, target shooters, and enthusiasts alike.

    The 8 x 64 S offers a wide range of bullet weights from 160 to 250 grains, making it an excellent choice for hunting, predator calling, long-range target shooting, and even self-defense. In addition to its versatility, this round also offers improved accuracy due to its small case size as well as good velocity at longer distances. Furthermore, the 8 x 64 S has excellent energy retention past 1,000 yards and reduced recoil when compared with other cartridges.
