Browning High Power rifle in 358 Norma?

[rifleguy]

Howdy guys, I'm kinda new to the internet scene and this is the first time that I have joined any kind of a groop, but I do shoot Nosler bullets and I love rifles and I am contemplating getting a 358 Norma mag. I have a 308 norma mag that I have had for a number of years it is a Browning High power safari grade (not a salt stock) and am wondering if Browning ever made the High Power rifle in 358 Norma, I have found nothing about such a rifle but would sure like to get my hands on one............... Ideas?

Welcome rifleguy,
Have no idea if it was made but the 358 Norma is one heck of a cartridge. You sometimes see Shultz and Larsen and Husqvarna's in 358 Norma, maybe finding a Browning Hi Power in another belted magnum and rebarreling might be an option.

Welcome to the forum. I am not sure about the HI power rifle but I am quite sure the Safari did in 358.

Great caliber!


Here is one but a Winchester

Welcome aboard, rifleguy. There are quite a few great fellows hanging out around here (and a few curmudgeons). There is a wealth of knowledge available for the asking.

Thanks guys for the encouragement I was fairly sure that I was going to go with the 358 norma but now I know, it's just a matter of finding the right rifle for the right price.... and BK, sorry buddy about the lack of pictures, I work on a military base on the Alutian islands and dont have it with me but when I get home to arizona I will post some.

OH..... anyone got a 358 norma for sale?
