[QUOTE="nvschütze, post: 1687018, member: 110896"] My .358 Sierra Stomper is pretty much the .35 Newton. I form it with factory .375 Ruger brass; uses custom-made forming and reloading dies. I get 4092 foot-pounds of muzzle energy at 2715 fps (250-grain bullet). The recoil is murder; about twelve rounds and I'm done with it for the day. The .300 Nevada Desert Magnum is the '06 on a .532" head; same case length, neck length and shoulder angle. The .358 Sierra Stomper is what the .35 Whelen would be on a .532" head. Case volume to the mouths is 85.0 grains o' water for the .300; 89.0 grains for the Stomper. 68.0 grains of H4831SC in the .300 propels a 180-grain Sierra MatchKing bullet to 3000 fps. That charge fills the case to the shoulder, so a few fps more might be possible. [/QUOTE]
