    A less than overpriced 357Max in a lever has been hoped for by many for a long time.

    Regardless of how much sense it would make, do not hold your breath.

    If I was more ambitious, I would find a beat up old marlin 30-30 and try to design a "conversion kit" with all of the small parts (not the barrel).

    Actually the best hope at the moment is a Henry Long Ranger in 350 Legend. The $900+ price is not cheap, but if it came in a 35 straight wall rimless from the factory, there would be customers. And I really do not think it would take much at all on Henry's part. The big question would be how well the WW factory ammo would work in it.

And many gas check cast boolits work as well.

    For Ohio you just get something in 375 Winchester. Starline is making the brass now.

    What's cool about the Legend is that it should work in the .223 envelope. Not that I am interested in AR15s in this cartridge. But I think the small frame bolt actions would be a great home for this cartridge.

    I was all hot to get a ruger no1 or no3 coverted to max. Now I think I will wait and see what comes out in Legend. Wouldn't be surprised to see a Ruger no1 in it or a CZ527. Both of those I'd snap up, especially iff the CZ was offered in Left hand.
    Easier for IN is to just trim 35 Remington brass to the legal length, and use it in a 35 Remingon rifle ??

    The 375 Win does not fit into my AR15 .

    Both ends WHAT a player
