Many thanks for the tips and information guys. I am now on the hunt for a bargain on some 225 grain Partitions. Are factory seconds worth a look? I read once the 210 grain .338 Partitions were made tougher then the 250's because they were being driven faster, ya got me. Just wondering if the same is true for .35 caliber bullets? I am thinking 225 grains is about ideal for Alaska for hunting with a .356 Win. case. I ordered the 250 grain Kodiaks for up close and personal use.
Trying to decide on a powder and it looks like WW 748 and Varaget are good Choices.
I've bought a ton of the factory seconds/overruns from SPS. The only difference I've seen are maybe a cannelure or different colored tip in the BT's. Great bullets at a great price. I've been keeping an eye out for the 225s for my 358 and will have to try the filing trick for my 356.
