With that said, I have a hankering for a .358. I know I'm going to end up with one. I just can't decide if I want a bolt or Savage 99.


Thanks for the input but I can't see a 6.8 replacing the craving for the big bore thumping power of the 358 win.That's the only reason I was considering one of the 458 AR calibers. An upper would possibly be a quick and easy to scratch the itch.
