We don’t have many Rhino’s running around the USA. We are a long way from Kodiak Bear where I live. There are no wild buffalo left on the plain.

I think this is the niche that Norma had in mind when it designed the .358 Norma Magnum. Something more than capable for anything that populates North America and Scandinavia because we share a lot of fauna and not something designed for African large game and then adapted to North America. Never really caught on, in large part, because Winchester, the gun manufacturer Norma hoped to partner with, saw the same niche and developed the .338 Win Magnum around the same time. In my opinion, the .358 Norma is a better round but far less practical.

I've always wanted a .308 Norma Magnum and a .358 Norma Magnum since I first heard about them as a kid. Someday, even though I have no need for either.

Yes. I understand the want for quality tools and weapons. It is seldom because you need it. But you take pleasure knowing you have them. Especially weapons.
