The .35 rem loaded with 43.0 to 45.0 grains Hodgdon LVR powder can reach with in 200 to 250 feet per second of the .358. Not sure if a 200 FPS slower bullet will matter at "Woods" ranges. Like comparing the .308 to the 30-06.

The most coveted bullet for the .35 rem and the .358 win is the Remington 200 gr round nose core-lokt. The last time Remington shipped the .35 rem 200 gr RN as a component bullet was December of 2013. With either cartridge you choose there are challenges in components.

There is NO way you are getting within 200-250 fps of the 358.
