[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 1636795, member: 69192"] Yes the 358Norma magnum and the.308 Norma magnum are long forgotten cartridges that never really received the recognition they ought to have had over the years. Out to 300-400 yards the .358 NM is a formidable cartridge capable of keeping up with the 338WInMag, and up close there’s a lot of frontal area to promote tissue damage. And....it’s a whole lot easier in the power department, thus easier on the shoulder!! If I were going on a brown/grizzly hunt I’d build another 358NM for the hunt with no reservation at all about being under gunned! Currently I use a 35 Whelen for black bear hunting 225 gr Barnes TSX astonishes me every time. The Whelen ought to work on big bear, however I believe that there are better cartridges for the job.
