Thread: 358 Win load help and sggestions

Hi Tentman,
That's great. Thanks for the information and guidance.
Those number bear out what I was thinking and experiencing. I could not see how 51 gr was going to fit.
Usable case capacity of 49.6 gr looks real.

Looks like I will have to go a grain hotter up to 49 gr to get the 2500 fps I was after.
The nice thing is that the Chamber pressures will be well down at 40,000 psi so I won't be giving the action too much of a hard time.
3.75" high at 100 mtr with a 200 mtr zero.
Virtually the same as the 225 Game kings if I can get them to 2400 fps (staying under 49gr of powder) but the GK's hang in to 300 mtr only 9" low.

Thanks again
Zq
