I will grow old before I see another 225, .358 PT again. Doubt they will ever produce them.

.358 225 grain Partition. They haven't done a run in years. Perhaps never will.

Only one. A Springfield heavy barrel "T" model. Build in 1927 for long range target . Missing the top half of the aperture sight. Suppose I should fine one and get it to the bench.

Do you think they will expand enough?

What is the consensus on the 250 grain Partition at 358 Win speeds? I have a couple of hundred. I ran out of the 225s. I would be loading fir a Browning BLR. Varget, Tac, and BLC-2 for powders. Might get 2300 fps. Will be used for Roosevelt Elk at 150 yds or less. I've given up waiting to...

Four actually. A BLR on .308 and a Savage 99 in 300 for deer. A .358 BLR and a Marlin guide gun in 45-70 for Elk.

Shade Tree. I see what you are saying, I think I will need a different sizing die for necking up. The Pacesetter is designed to slip if an obstacle is encountered. Thanks for the input.

Ordered from midway on sale. Not I'm pressed. No way to lock the die nut. It has a O ring. When you remove the die, everything you set comes undone. Not a positive locking system. Also, these .358 Winchester dies will not size up .308 cases. The expander is designed to slip, not break on...

I am loading the Hornady 350 at approx 1700 fps. Intended for Roosevelt Elk. Do you think the slower speed might mean more penetration? Via slower expansion?

All good info. Thanks guys. SJB358, that's likely where I'll end up.

I found info on 24 gr8 Campfire that suggested Tac at 41 grains max. Any here have experience with that combo? Coponents are: 150 grain Sierra and Speer flat base spitzer. WRL primers. New hornady cases. 22 inch barrel 1954 Savage 99 I do have Accurate 2520, which has good book data for...

Thanks everyone. Polaris, good point about the flat base shorter bullets. Thanks again.

Dr Mike. Thank you for that. Shows how close in performance those powders are. Seems Tac may not be the best with 150 or 165 grain loads. Why would you not use the Etip? I was thinking it may make a usefull elk load without buying 180 partitions. 180 gr loads seem mighty slow out of the...

Just picked up a 1957 , 99. 300 Savage. I have Etip 150 and Hornady 150 interlocks, 165 Sierra go. I have Tac, Blc-2, 3130, Re 15. Read in bandleader magzine of Tac with 125 it's giving high velocity, and Re 15 fast with 165s. Any advice/wisdom on this. Seems some of the newer powders...

I would happily use my .358 winny, putting a 225 partition on that dot or a little left. Sitting, using sticks.

Gentlemen, how would this bullet or the 250 partition do for .358 Winchester velocities? 20 Inch BLR.

I find blacktails the most challenging deer to hunt.

Really nice rifle. I like the heftier barrel profile. Should be really steady.

My Browning BLRs. For a good action clean, I take off the butt stock and forarm and blast it clean with brake cleaner. Then a light relubing. Have to do the barrel from the muzzle.
