Cbashooter pointed out an interesting historical anecdote: The .357 Maximum is identical to the 19th century .35-30 Maynard. Case length and diameter is the same as that old target round. Coincidence, or Remington/Ruger saw a good thing 40 years ago but didn't think a ".35-30 Maynard" would catch on the modern shooting world?
