[QUOTE="Lost Lake, post: 5537618, member: 12599"] Basically, like Plateau Hunter said, it’s a revamp of a cartridge called a 35/30. It doesn’t really do anything the 35 Remington wasn’t already doing very well. I love straight wall big bore cartridges for lever actions, but only a few like the 45/70 and to a degree, the .444 Marlin have remained popular. The 38-55 and the “modern” high pressure version of it, the .375 Winchester, have faded. It’s a shame too, because they’re great medium bore options for levers. I hate that this 360 uses the same bullet diameter as the .35 Remington, because now Big Green will be using most of those for the 360 instead of putting them into the .35. Users of the .35 only receive limited runs of ammo as it is now, and reloaders have a hard enough time finding components. Lots of fine Model 336 35’s are gonna be gathering more dust as the 360 gets the bullets. Dang shame. Maybe though, bullet makers will offer more .358 bullet options because of this new fad. Just my thoughts. [/QUOTE]
