Can't give you exact stuff, but the Speer #13 manual has plenty and so does the Barnes #3. Also, right here at Huntingnut.com there are 17 different .358 Win loads listed.

Since you have a BLR your choice of spitzer bullets is pretty good. By the way, what are you looking to load for right now? If elk, you should look at the Barnes Triple Shock in 225 gr.

That is a beautiful rifle, what model did you get?

Hi Pop, almost got one of those and still want one. Got a new BLR in .308 though. Recoil is much less than I thought it would be. How is the recoil in the .358? Also, if you don't want to buy expensive bullets but one that I am sure will do the job, try Sierra's 225 Game King (spitzer/boat-tail). That same type bullet really does a fantastic job in my .264 win. mag. in the 140 gr. wt. See ya',,,,,,,Terry.

The Sierra Gameking 225gr SBT is excellent in the 358 with IMR 4320.
Since the vel is slow bullet performance is excellent in BLR.

Try IMR 4895 in your .358, works great in my encore.

Just my 2 cents worth

Message and loads sent by e-mail Pop.

This is an old post, so I wanted you to get it.

I hope that it helps.
