Ken: Yes, I do want to shoot a .358 NM. Thank you. Regarding the brass, it's not the belt, per se, rather it's the increased recoil, muzzle blast and the 'magnum' designation. I've never been crazy about magnums when 'lesser' cartridges can do nearly the same thing and be more pleasant to shoot.


l told my pap and mam I was going to be a mountain man; acted like they was gut-shot. Make your life go here. Here's where the peoples is. Mother Gue, I says, the Rocky Mountains is the marrow of the world, and by God, I was right.
