I was thinking of doing a thread for most wanted calibers like these

That would be really cool bc no one knows any of these calibers outside of the 8mm within the US it seems or are rather rare finds. So I figured the idea of Regional Weapon Packs with 4 Weapons for $9.99 was a good suggestion.

How about a proper 6.5x55 Swede? It's another rifle with a reputation for success across the entire world, whether it's springboks in Africa or Moose in Sweden

Maybe a 9,3x70 for the africa Pack. Its a really beefy round

European pack? Then the 8x57 IS is missing.

@raven vigil thats true but in the english speaking Community 8mm Mauser is synnonymous with 8x57IS

@raven vigil ich bin auch deutscher und kann dich da verstehen aber es ist halt so

In fact the old carl gustavs would also be nice historic addition to the european pack... the so called M/96 or "sweden mauser" in 6,5 × 55 SE. If you ever held one in your hands and saw the year 1889 or something like that on it and saw how precise it still is, you are really impressed.

To add to that the US in specific also has a problem of naming the 8x57 I and IS as J and JS respectively since according to the lore (I use that as a joke) someone somewhere misread the German print "I" as a "J" and it stuck for a long time and has led to a lot of confusion here especially since places for the US like Midway USA still refer to it as a broad whole of just 8mm Mauser like Lt Wolf mentioned or sometimes more specifically 8x57 JS Mauser on occasion usually followed by the bore diameter since US ammo makers and/or importers have had a problem with marking I bore ammo with IS or JS in the past and causing problems. The reverse has also happened where IS ammo was labeled for I bore guns and lead to mistakes that caused damage

#

Tldr the 8x57 family of cartridges is confusing in the US sometimes and that confusion has resulted in problems lol

raven vigil
#

To be clear things up: the I stands for "infantry" as the the cartridge was developed for military use in the late 19th / early 20th century. The S stand for its pointy shape, which the older 8x57 I didn't have.

Now I'm curious as to what the North American and African weapons packs would be in your opinion. Maybe I've missed that in the previous threads, though. This is a great looking pack regardless.

But I rlly want the 8mm in the game

nova quail

# lethal adder I feel like if these were released with those classes, either all of these would...

I'm expecting all calibers to be redone either by EW adding additional ammo options just as Ultimate hunting has done for all calibers or expanding calibers to their full authentic range referencing actual ammo & applications. As calibers are now that's meta. I still expect calibers to vary in power & knockdown as they should, but caliber game class ranges should purely be based on authentic ammo applications. It bugs me Shotguns & Bows have options while pistols & rifles have 2 ammo options with the same range. "[But let's be honest its 1 not 2 bc Soft Points are seriously outperformed by the Polymer-Tips!]". The Hudzik is the only 1 that has 2 ammo game range options. An yes, the calibers above are authentically classed & genuine. They're not made up.

@edgy frigate Are your other Packs up, can't find any via Search

@prisma mirage but I'll try to get to it next week if all goes well. Along with updates to my other threads. I'm trying to keep in the loop with Alberta since I recently found out EW released a trailer & I'm following Huxley's petition for the new 30-30 & possible ammo expansion for it.

We have bunch of perfect rifles for 1-3 c. (Thanks SKS, our money and our tolerate). We have a lot of perfect rifles for 4-8 c. (except an anti-tank rifle for moose). Even 7-9 c. without problem now. Another rifles for undangerous predators? Feedback divided on two groups now. Give us more new rifles for our money. Rework oldest rifles and animals for "Thanks". The choice is obvious. But.... will it help to back to the game?
