IT AINT what ya shoot--its how ya shoot it. NONE of us are as smart as ALL of us! The more I travel, the more I like right where I am.
CVA is still a 360 BuckHammer mystery but I just got an email reply from Magnum Research and they said that caliber was definitely on their list of chamberings they were considering. They said check back in 4-6 months. Update: Magnum Research Tech guy just sent another email and said they would be making
Them as soon as they could get ammo and reamers. They will be available through Bill Hicks, a distributor I would guess

The folks at Remington said that Ruglin was going to make guns for it too as well as Henry. Probably a 336. They also said that the testing was done and the SAAMI drawing had been submitted (we knew that) and approved. Ammo should be forthcoming-Remington's statements, not mine.
For the "straight wall case " states, it sounds like a whitetail woods gun for sure. Everybody knows that the 35 Rem is the kissin' cousin but the game and fish bureaucrats had to have their say so we get another cartridge. At least this time it is one that us cast boolit people can identify with.

I know of a few with emails into CVA requesting the 360.
If enough of us ask they may chamber some!!!

With a real world price of under $350 plus the fact that the accuracy reputation, it is a no brainer for a monetarily challenged guy like myself.

I have since discovered that they did indeed make a 35 Rem and it must have not been a great seller OR Covid could have interrupted their work force so they dropped the ones that didn't move that we. That country got hit pretty hard with the China virus. The 35 Whelen is available now but I don't care to load it down to the slower speeds I'm looking for and the 350 Legend appeals not a bit with the case mouth headspace and .355 barrel. A 360 BH sounds about right AND I have a ton of 30-30 brass!
Four-Sixty, how does your rifle shoot? These guns seem to have a great reputation for accuracy.

I think I got my Scout in 35 Remington about 5 or 6 years ago. I was at Academy and they said they only got one in chambered in 35 Remington. It happens to come with a silver finish. It is not black.
I must admit I've not shot my 35 Remington Scout too much due to my plan for it to compliment a 336 in 35 Remington that never materialized. My experience is it really worked best with 200 grain bullets so far. I did not have much luck with lighter bullets. I've been shooting lots of 30-30 in a 336 instead. I would be interested in a scout in 30-30.
I did, however, get a Scout in 44 Magnum and have been very pleased with it. I had a brass mold from Arsenal for that popular Keith bullet. With some Unique it shot like a laser. I took a 14" pumpkin out to the range and shot a hole through the center of it at 50 yards. Then, I shot the pumpkin into two haves. Next I pulverized the chunks of remaining pumpkin. Alas, my Arsenal mold had one of the guide pins fall out - the second time. I returned it at my expense never to get any reply from Arsenal. So, now my Scout sits idle. I need to buy a similar mold profile from NOE or Accurate. The Scout in 44 Magnum is a great rifle. I ran a stick down the chamber and you cannot feel the transition from the chamber to the rifling. I do plan on getting a scout in 300 Blackout. That would be awesome. A rifle that is 30 caliber, and brass can almost always be found at the range! If they made a Scout in 357 Magnum, I would consider getting a couple as gifts. Most people I take to the range really enjoy the single shots.

I am a little puzzled -- which of course is normal for me -- but what does Magnum Research have to do with CVA? I know MR is owned by the Kahr Arms group, but CVA is owned by BPI and I haven't heard of a connection.
Nothing, it was just a FYI about the 360 BH>

Whatever!
