This is the message I received with the rifle:

"The .338 bore didn't look good to me, so I made it into .358 Win. She seems to shoot fine. I know this isn't what you wanted, so I am returning your money".

Like I said, I am a little aggravated....but it's really not that big of a deal. I know .358's are fairly popular, so it shouldn't be difficult to get rid of....and I have no hesitation in sending him another rifle.
