How many steps to make the 358 Hoosier?
I was working on a 358-6.5 Creedmoor and a 358-300 Savage AI before I heard about the proposed rule changes. Both seemed "easier" than the 358 Hoosier from what I have heard. The Creedmoor needed necked up to 308 and 338 prior to 358 and then a trim of about 0.1 inches. Should have same case capacity or a little more than the Hoosier without moving the shoulder. I hadn't gotten as far with the 358-300 Savage AI but I likely wouldn't have been much more than a neck up, trim and fire form. I would have had a case capacity much closer to the 358 Winchester with a shorter neck.
Anyways, hopefully don't matter now!
I necked up a 308 case to 358 and seated a 250 gr Speer Hot Cor. I like the looks...
