The 2004 Ruger catalog has a 350 Rem Mag in the ark II.  Does this caliber appeal to anyone here?  8)

It sure does! Only problem is bolt is on the wrong side!

Yes, but I'd rather see it in 6.5 Rem Mag, with a 24" barrel.

Almost bought a Remington once, thought it would make a great bear gun.  

Would much rather have a Ruger if it has a short barrel (20-22").  But since I got my Marlin 1895 in 45-70, I probably won't ever get a .35.

Would be nice if Ruger did both the 6.5 and the .350 but only if the barrel was at least 24 inches.  Then you could find out what these cartridges could really do.  Small groups and tight lines to all.  Lawdog

I like anything that helps the 35 and the 26 caliber guns become more popular (or just popular at all) in this country.  It helps the bullet selection for those of us that have always thought of them as useful bore sizes.  Ruger does need to offer more M77 rifles with 24" barrels, even in standard calibers, though.
