I've never owned a 358win. I know one person that's used his in Africa with great success. A fine cartridge..  I think most people consider it the beginning of the big bores so I wouldn't compare it to the medium 338's and such.

What's the gun you've got chambered in 325wsm?  I used to have one in a Kimber Montana.  I've been thinking about getting another just not sure what make and model yet.  I love the round, but I just never warmed up to the kimber.  It just didn't fit me.

My 325wsm in browning stainless stalker is a dream.  Very light and with a Sims recoil pad is very tolerable when it comes to recoil.  Had the gun three years now and it's accounted for two Moose, 3-4 deer and one elk.  Love that gun.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

 I would buy one in an instant. I'd really like to have a S$W Mountain GUn, but I just can't justify the cost of one.

41mag is a sweet cartridge! But although Ruger wheel guns are known for being tank-like, I'm not sure the GP100 would be strong enough for the 41mag. I think they'd have to put it in the Redhawk/Blackhawk platforms.

I want Ruger to refine the trigger of the GP100 to be Colt Python smooth out of the box. That would be sweet.

 I'd be fine with a 5 shot GP. Allready have a 4 5/8 BH. Just a bit bulky.

I've got the 61/2" blackhawk in 41 and I dont think its too bulky at all.  Its noticably smaller than my super blackhawks.

I think that the GP-100 is beefier than some of those revolvers that Taurus has in 41 mag.

The G100 probably is beefier than many of the Taurus's or other brands chambered in 41mag, that doesn't make it worthy of being a 41mag as a Ruger. But I've been wrong once or twice before.

Well I still think it'd be a great gun with a six inch barell.

I love my Rugers, I love new inovation. But this is a total waste of time with a cartridge between the 38spl and 357mag.  I hold it just as worthless as the 338 Federal.  There's already a cartridge that fits this role.. It's called the 38super and could have used moon clips to fire in a revolver if they really wanted it on that platform. I'd rather see them come up with a semi-auto that would hold its own with the M&P series.

"NEAR" magnum performance for 'recoil light hearted' shooters.   :cryriver:

x2 you saved me some typin lol

While I love ruger revolvers and there .22's I have always been less than impressed with there attempts at centerfire auto handguns.
