Introduced in 1965 in the controversial Model 600 carbine, the .350 Remington Magnum is the most powerful factory loaded cartridge ever available in short action rifles. Why no .35 caliber factory cartridge except the .35 Remington has managed to win the hearts of American hunters is a question that has plagued cartridge designers for decades. It is especially puzzling when we consider that during its existence as a wildcat, the .35 Whelenprobably had more fans than all the factory loaded .35 caliber cartridges except the .35 Remingtoncombined. At any rate, the .350 Remington Magnum is an excellent cartridge, one quite capable of taking all big game in North America and most big game anywhere else. It might best be described as a .35 Whelen in a more compact package. The .350 Remington Magnum loaded with the 200 grain Hornadyspire point, Remington 200 grain pointed Core Lokt, Speer220 grain flatnose, or the 225 grain bullets made by Noslerand Sierrais an extremely effective cartridge on deer and black bear. For elk, moose, and grizzly, the Nosler225 grain Partition, and 250 grain bullets available from Barnes, Speer, and Hornadyare better choices. H4895, H355, and H380are excellent powders for the .350 Remington Magnum.
