358 winchester

Anyone use one of these?  What can you tell me about it.  Does it work well on elk at reasonabler ranges?  Got any reload data for it?

Awesome little round! I had a custom Modell 88 built some years ago, just sold it a few months ago. I made it too perty, made me sick to beat it up in this brush hole around here. Last Christmas I bought my 13 year old a Browning BLR 358, he seems too like it fine. As far as a elk cartridge, out to 300 yards, its a dandy. Killed my best Roosevelt with a 358. I had best luck with 48.5 grains of winchester 748, 225 SGK's at around 2500 fps. Works good on bucks too. Later

I have a buddy that has one in a 99.  He has killed elk, deer, and bear with it.  It is best to reload for it.  Factory stuff if you can find it starts around $50 per 20.
