Well, being a fan of my 9.3 X 62 I've been monkeying with cartridge design stuff and think I want to build a 36 Nosler.
Yeah, I know. Hand howitzer. But man, the potential looks pretty amazing.
What say you?

Being the owner of several 350 Remington Mag rifles, I'd say the only drawback to the "36" is bullet selection. You'll drive what's available harder and faster than the RemMag, but I think you'd be better off thinking "34"

That's an idea. Thanks!
Just fascinated with the 9.3.

I too have the .35 bug, however, the bullet manufacturers haven't developed a single long range bullet in years. Just look at what's available for the .338 caliber and you'll find a plethora of long range bullets perfectly suited to the Nosler brass.
