 Got what I thought to be a stiff shoulder from neck turning over 100 7.62 x41 cases.  Went to the range today to test out some loads in my .358 x 404 IMP. Bad mistake !! After 20 rounds I bagan to think I might have a problem. Switched over to the new Shaw 6.5 x 55 barrel.After another 20 shots I was in pure misery. It's really something when that pleasant cartridge punishes you. Here is what little data I have to offer. Probably only Bwanab will be interested in the first. Stevens Mod. 200, Shaw 24" barrel, 46.5 gr. H-4831, #34 primer oal= 3.017", CBC cases.  Group sizes are not indicative of loadings; I was doing just a little flinching.

Hey Bartsche, Was thinking about you last night after the news. Only thing worth seeing on it was when they showed a fellow standing next to a 319.6# Halibut hanging by it's tail. What do you plan to hunt with the .358x .404 IMP? Looks like it sends a 200gr Bullet out quick enough to shoot rather flat too. | |||

 It was a bad day in 1955 when they made that movie about revenge for racism in WWII. Spencer Tracy as a one armed old man that can beat up Earnest Borgnine with karate chops. | |||

When I designed it I of course was thinking BIG. That was prior to the Ultra Mags. Never did shoot anything with it and maybe never will. Take it to the range once or twice a year, but that's about it. It will and has put 250 gr. bullets out at a measured 3150 fps. Maybe some day I'll find someone who will shoot an elk with it for me.  rogerOld age is a high price to pay for maturity!!! Some never pay and some pay and never reap the reward.
