Some .348 components up for trade. This isn't mine and I don't have a dog in the fight just hoping to help someone out with some bread crumbs.
Nothing wrong with a .348 Win or cast bullets in them, either. I am sitting on 3 of them right now. I whacked my first elk- a cow- with one at about 75 yards and my own Lyman cast bullet. Bang Flop. It was a neat experience for me because the guy I was hunting with told me not to bring the rifle.
At one with the gun.
i plan on using my 71 for a cow elk this year. i was going to use it for moose, but the situation just didnt work out right. i also have an 1885 uberti in 348, it shoots VERY well.
I have a mold from the C350-225-FN group buy to feed my Browning M71 rifle.

If you need some samples for a test drive, just drop me a PM.

I just recently acquired a very nice Model 71 deluxe made in 1952. Shot it Sunday for the first time with 200 grain Hornadys I loaded. I look forward to finding a good bullet mold and working up some good cast bullet hunting loads.
This thread almost makes me wish I hunted. I've gotten too old but several years ago I ran across a Browning Miroku 71 at a very good price. I like the looks of the Model 71 so much that I couldn't pass it up. Bought a Mountain Mold in 250 gr. I don't remember if I specified bore ride or not but that's what it says. I don't shoot it often but I do get it out and look at it from time to time.
