A friend once gave me a barrel (TC Contender) chambered for a full length .444 run through a normal .358 Win. Sizer. I think it was originally a .35 Rem. tube. The resulting ctg., if you had a brass you could make one, is rather ugly looking. Like a bigger .30/30 with the long neck. I trimmed them to .356 Win. Length to look better. The bullets are long anyway and no problem in a single shot.

You can’t load it as hot as a .358 Win. But you can get a 200 gr. up around 2200 fps pretty easy. The .35’s hit hard! Gary’s .35 on the .30/30 would be bunches cheaper to source brass and more efficient.
