Since this thread, I completely reworked my .358 Model 7. I had Pac-Nor reprofile the barrel to a standard Rem sporter, put it in a B&C Alaskan stock, and swapped the scope to a 3-10 Swaro AV. And worked up a 200-gn Accubond load to try instead of 225 NPT I've used on the last half-dozen deer. The scope change was for low-light more than anything. This is my primary blacktail rifle. Love the cartridge. I will reiterate that RL7 is fantastic up to 200-gn bullets (will touch 2700 fps w/ 200's).
I think I saw that Hornaday was coming out with headstamped .358 brass.... anyone try it?
Starline also has .358 brass available
