The 358 Win is a very under appreciated hunting cartridge, by the general hunting public, probably no cartridge is any better for deer size game in the thick woods, where shots are normally well under 200 yards, which also happens to be the normal cast bullet hunting range.

When combined with the Rem 200 RN or a 180 Win it can be loaded to 35 Rem velocities to make a good hunting rifle for younger hunters.
It’s also a really interesting round, lots of info on pistol bullet loads, cast bullet loads, etc. not many rounds as versatile.

If one was big into these variations, seems having a dedicated scope set up for different classes of ammo would make sense.

I thought about it, just stuck with hunting ammo.
