Actually the 357 is a superior cartridge. But it won't fit In a m1 carbine. I have a carbine. If I could find a decent 357 auto load rifle I'd have it to match rounds withy pistol. The Marlin 1894 was a nice rifle in 357, but just wasn't for me.



Well, my experience with .357 rifles is limited to the Italian version
of the Win '92 and my current Henry .357, both lever actions. I did get
to shoot a couple of rounds with the Ruger Model 77 .357 bolt action and
considered getting one but I have a "thing" for lever action. There
might be a .357 autoload rifle out there, but I've not seen anything
specific about one. There are lots of people who'd like to have one, though.

The Henry .357, by the way, has a very smoooooooth action, and virtually
no kick. I have a 1x4 scope/red dot on mine, and it is very accurate at
50 to 100 yards. Haven't shot it beyond 100 yards but once, and that was
before I scoped it.
