Hey Guys looking for some help. Got my custom 358 win done and I just got the barrel broken in.
The rife showed an immediate preference for the Wisconsin Cartridge Load Speer 180 gr flat nose at 2600 fps over the Hornaday 200 grain factory load at about 2450 fps.
I have Nosler 225 partitions, Speer 220's and 180's, Hornaday 200 gr Spire points on hand.
The rifle is a modern 700 with HS Bottom Metal and Magazine. I can run that bullet out to about 2.85 or so C.O.A.L the barrel is a Douglas premium 1-12 twist 22"
Since it showed a preference right away for the Speer profile, I m inclined to go right after a good stout load with that 220 grain bullet.
I have Varget, 3031, and 4064 on hand, but I can track down other powders fairly easily. Since its such a short bullet I feel I can get away without over compressing a load.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks again!
