I got the opposite result in my .358 Win, which is pretty close to the .356 Win.

RL-7 was more accurate than RL-10, especially with lighter bullets.

I've read that some, like you, prefer RL-10.

X-Terminator is probably my fav all around .358 Win powder, including heavier bullets up to 225 gr. I don't use 250's, thinking they're more suited to the 35 Whelen and larger capacity cases. 250's are sorta slow in the .358 Win, although I know some like them.
