Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles 358 Win Pre-64 Fwt

Eight loads all weighed out, approximating 2,500 fps with the 200 gr FTX, scheduled to arrive tomorrow or Wed.

Here are the loads and how they fill the cases. #1 starts at the right.

Some will lightly compress, appears 748, TAC, H-322 and Benchmark, the least.

I'm not pushing the envelope on velocity, just trying to stay in the 2,500 fps range, or pretty close.

All with Win Mag primers as noted earlier. Many of the cases were formed from .243 Win brass, others from various .308's. .243 origin cases don't seem to have thinner necks as one would suppose.

You can see where I scratched out.H-322, didn't have enough and 2230, some say it's the same as X-terminator, which could be a good one. Decisions decisions....
