356 Winchester

Hey guys,


Had a call recently about adding the .356 Winchester.  It came in today if anyone needs it.  Thanks.

With all the flury of activity around this excellent caliber I would think it will get some use for the boys here!!
 
I'm fairly certain I will be one after the new year!!
 
Thanks for offering it!!

Well, Its official...
I ordered brass, could not find my dies...so I ordered another set of them too. ::)
 
Now to track down a 35 Rem... (Complete gun) ;)  That may not be so easy...

.35 rem or .357 mag. I think the .35 rem can be done by hand fairly easy.

Yup, Thats what I am thinkin' too!  ;)
 
Also, I would rather have a complete gun so buying a 35 REM gets me a SB2 receiver. While the 357MAG gets me a SB1 that I do not want or need...

G66,
  Which extractor did you use for yours? There's been some off-line conversations regarding the conversion and I still don't know which one could be used.




While I'm at it, I'll second your suggestion. Just do it! ;)




Thanks, Dinny

It is a rechambered 357 and I think the original extractor was modified. Wayne York did the work. G66

30-30 extractors or ejectors make it a very easy conversion to the rimmed version

George,
  Thanks for the info. I was thinking the 30-30 extractor/ejector parts were wider but I'm sure that can be remedied in short order.  :)

They are Dinny... Quick measurements are 3/16" for many and 5/16" for the 30-30..  BUT as you said fairly easily remedied...

OK The rifle is on order!!
 
Can anyone tell me what configurations it was offered in?
 
I ordered a SB2-35Remington.
 
Basically I am asking about the stocks... I have seen the convertible guns with 444 in synthetic. But not any 35Rem only guns. I would LOVE it if it came thru with camo syn but blk syn would be OK too..

I don't know the SB2 model number of the SKU #72541 35R/444 combo, but SB2-35R is one of the single barrel versions, black syn stock I think, another that has the syn camo stock is SB2-3C5.  ;)
