I have no experience with the 358Win, but have used a 338 Federal for years. The load I settled on is a 185gn TTSX at about 2650fps. It has been an absolute hammer on everything so far. Have not taken anything bigger than a few large hogs, but all have fallen with no tracking needed. Good deer cartridge too. Longest shot on game for me has been about 225 yards. I took it to Texas on our Nilgai hunt with Roger and James, but unfortunately didn't connect. Looking forward to the next time.

The 358Win does interest me though, and may be my next loony project.

To anger a conservative, lie to him. To annoy a liberal, tell him the truth.
