With all your great ideas we should collaborate! How does the .375 S&J SNM (Steve and Jack Super Nitro Magnum). 93 fps faster than the .375 H&H at the muzzle, but with 3% less recoil! hahaha :-P .

The necked-up .338 Steve Short Action (ahem, begging to become a standard factory chambering for the Remington model Seven) followed by lengthening that into the .338 Steve Super Magnum (elk hunters will love it). A necked-down .204 Steve for the varminting crowd. And how about a .17 Steve wildcat available only from the Sako custom shop? Oh - don't forget the obligatory Marlin/Hornady joint project to develop a rimmed version of the .30 Steve for use in lever guns. Which also just happens to make 124 fps more velocity than the standard Steve using a new proprietary propellant that Hornady has been saving for just such an occasion. I can already see the cover of 'Guns and Ammo.' 'The .338 Steve Super Magnum - America's NEW Classic Elk Cartridge?' Somebody get Craig Boddington on the phone so we can have him hike off to Mongolia with a brand new Thompson-Center in .338 Steve Super Magnum to get a trophy sheep for the front page of 'Peterson's Hunting.'
