358 win

hello Swede...Try using AA 2520 with whatever 200 gr. bullet you want to try. I used it to push a 200 gr. Hornady sp. It was good and accurate in my BLR. the powder was suggested to me by someone off of the huntchat site that shot alot of 358. As far as a hunting bullet goes I was a little surprised and disapointed at how much bloodshot I got with the hornady bullet. I am going to try the new 200 gr. tsx when I have time. I tried the 225 gr. tsx using imr 4895 but got inconsistent accuracy in my rifle, plus the max loads where quite compressed. For a little bit of reading on the 358 try these two sites...www.gunblast.com/Browning-blr358.htm and www.leverguns.com/articles/paco/358_wcf.htm Good luck with your new rifle!!
