Sometimes you just gotta have it. I have a lot I don’t need. I have 5 seven mags, don’t need more than one.

I shot one for a number of years, 250gr RN's for deer, but it killed a lot more squirrels. I experimented with 148gr DEWC's over a mild load of 700x and it would shoot clover leafs at 50 yards and started carrying it for squirrels in prep for deer season, it became one of my favorite squirrel rifles. Someone offered an insane amount of money for it and it went down the road. It was overboard for deer and I never got draw for a moose tag. I replaced it with a Rem 721 rebored to 35 Whelen dropped into a synthetic 700 Stock. could you share some of your light loads

Supercub, that's my exact load also.

Supercub, that's my exact load also. I should have kept that rifle, but the moose hunting is rare here on a draw and we don't have the scary bears we read about on the interweb.  I am well served with a 308, 280 or 30-06 if I do get another tag. I've been out your way a couple times to the Yukon. Took a 375 but that 358 would have been perfect as well.
