Rechamber 357Mag to 35 Whelen
« on: December 11, 2009, 12:20:13 AM »
I'm curious if anybody has rechambered a 357 mag barrel to either 35 Whelen or 358 Win?

The only problem I can see it will depend on what twist the barrel is in your .357 mag. could be 1-18 or 1-15 1/2 the 35 Whelen is 1-16".
The 1-18 will not stabilize the long heavy bullets.
