And even my 9 year-old, now 10, loves to shoot the little Model Seven (with a few grains of Blue Dot pushing a 200 grain Lyman cast bullet down the bore).

Moose, bear, rabbits, caribou... they tip over when she barks.

that picture is kind of what got me on the bandwagon. The thought of using 158grain handgun bullets, and a heavy grain for big animals.
We don't have moose in arizona, but of the four or five elk i have shot none have been beyond about 75yards.
I have a .375winchester, but hornady doesn't seem to want to make 225grain projectiles that i can run up to about 2300fps.
I am firing cast lead in that at about 1800fps with 240grain.
the .358 should give me a similar weight bullet at over the 1800fps comfortably.
I could accomplish almost the same thing in the 350rem mag, cepting it's not suppose to like to feed in a rem660 the 250grainers, and while i have proper brass for it, it's like finding hen's teeth to find it.
