What loads do you guys have with 225 and 250 bullets in the 338 Federal and the 358 Winchester, and what is the FPS are you getting?

Tracy

I think both are fine under 300 yds with good shot placement.

If it were me, I'd load a 185x in 338Fed or 210 partition, possibly a 225gr.

In 358W, a 225 Sierra or Partition.

I changed my question on this topic.

Nimrod, here you go on 358...

Thanks 65BR, I have seen that.

I was hoping someone had loads for the 338 Federal with 225 and 250 grain buletts.....

Well, there are some loads here, but not with 250-grain bullets:

Nimrod, check your pm.

65, I have no PM from you?

The 338 Federal with the 210 TSX is an excelent performer for sure, as these photo's will attest..

This load is one I worked up to in my .358 rifle - use caution in yours!

52 gr of W-748 under a 225 partition, CCI Std LR primer, Win .358 brass. 2572 FPS

Dropping to 50 gr gave 2535 FPS and is the load I settled on.

Both powder charges also worked with 225 gr TSX, but accuracy was a little more consistent with the partition.

How long is your barrel?

21-inches. The above are the average of 5 rounds over the chrono.
