IMVHO, the .358 Winchester belongs at the top of the list of cartridges that didn't make it commercially. Thanks to the gun mags and writers who preach high velocity and flat shooting cartridges for that - all the other .308 derivatives are enjoying at least a modicum of success.

BTW, the Browning website shows the .358 available in the BLR:

However, I don't want a BLR as it's not tube-fed. I'd prefer a Marlin 336 stainless. Dream on, I suppose.

I saw a stainless 35 Rem Marlin at the last gun show. It had the shorter magazine like the 444, 45-70.
I want a 35 Rem, esp. now that the new Hornady ammo is out.
