A bullet that I have not seen mentioned in .358 that is absolutely fantastic is the Northfork 250 grain SS. These are the ones I have recovered from 2 safaris. Internally very similar to the Trophy Bonded Bear Claw but with the pressure relief rings. Tend to be very accurate too.

Years ago a friend and I did a test of our 600 yard line ammo for Service Rifle completion by sorting rounds that were under .003 and those over , some as bad as .006. Shooting off sandbags at dawn to avoid any wind we found sorting by runout to be an exercise in futility. No difference on target.

Fortunately there is a good supply of different manufacturers 35 Whelen brass available, even Norma makes it.

48 is not a Rem 700 clone, it has a flat bottom action. 700 scope bases are compatible and I guess triggers w/of a bolt stop.

I'm looking to solve the trigger position, does this do it?

That's a really good looking Waterbuck, congrats.

Sounds like a sales pitch. Just like every other magic bullet coating that has come and gone over the years. All have been solutions in search of a problem.

I had not thought of that. Not really a fan of an attachment, but it's worth investigating.

Personally, deer and antelope are medium game.

Black bears die easy vs deer and elk. I would skip the 200 grain cup and cores and use the X or the Accubond, both will reach out if you need to and also work at short range on bait.

I have a custom 280AI built on a FN Commercial Mauser action, works great. It was actually a 35 Whelen before the guy I sold it to rebarreled it to 280AI and I bought it back from him.

I have been impressed with my CVA Cascade in 6.5CM. I got the short barreled on and with a suppressor it is such a fun and accurate gun to shoot. I have a lot of experience with the 35 Whelen and have taken one on 2 trips to Africa. Shot everything from warthogs to eland with it and the 250...

H have a Model 48 in 325WSM that I really want to love, but the trigger placement in the guard feels awkward. Too high and to the rear. Does anyone offer a trigger with a fore/aft adjustment of the shoe?
