Remington no longer makes the 150-grain .358" CoreLokts available to reloaders. They do load it, but don't sell the bullets. A few years ago a shooter ordered 50,000 of them, Remington made a run for him, then he sold them on line. I believe he's been out for over a year. I got 300 of them... :twisted:

Nosler makes the 180 Partition which works well in the .357 Magnum and Herrett and the .35 Remington. There is no commercial reason for them to make a bullet that even Remington can't sell enough of to continue production. :wink:

I don't think there's any bullet manufacturer that make 150 grain in this caliber. The only thing I can think of is the XTP from Hornady in 357 magnum. I had been experimenting using a 250 grain bullet on my 35 Remi, TC Contender with 14 inch barrel. I'm shooting a metal gong at 200 yards at our range and it seems like the TC hits harder at 200 yards than my 300 Win Mag using 180 grain bullet. I can't wait to try them on Hogs.

Don't expect them to expand on game, the velocity is just too low. I shot a moose with my 14" TC using the Speer 250SP, and even after breaking a front leg bone the bullet didn't expand. Killed the moose alright, but I prefer expansion in my hunting bullets under .45". The Remington 200-grain RN CoreLokt works much better on larger game!
