Ruger 77 Mark II in 350 Rem Mag....

[Alan in GA]

Traded into a 99% walnut/blue. It will fill the void my 77R .358 Win left years ago. Neat to see Ruger saw fit to use a slightly heavier sporter contour with a muzzle measuring 0.650". Does anyone know the muzzle diameter of a MarkII or Hawkeye in the 358 Win that was offered?
I MAY consider a trade for a similar 358 Win but have already found dies and a few new 350 Rem Mag cases. I think a 358 Win is what I will wind up with, factory or custom barrel.
Who's shooting their 35 cal Ruger these days? I shot everything that measured .357-358-.360(paper patch) out of my 77R 358 Win when I had it. FUN caliber!

I don't have a Ruger in 350 Rem Mag, but I do have a Remington 673 and a T/C Encore pistol with 15" barrel. I don't use the 673 much, but the Encore pistol is a blast - literally. Loading 110 grain .357 bullets to 3,100 fps makes for quite the flat shooting round. Not quite sure what it's good for, but it sure groups well out to about 200 yds.
