|
I have been using 4064 in my 358 and I want to go to a double base ball powder. i like Hodgdon but I am wondering if anyone has found one that is "dead on accurate" in their 358.
I am looking at BL-C2, H335 and H380.
I use a 180 jacketed bullet and accuracy/consistancy are more important than velocity. I also want to get away from compressed loads. I use mostly 308 military brass reformed to 358 so case capacity is on the short side of most cases.
Anyone have any opinions?

I use Win 748 in my .358 which is a 14" Encore pistol. I am shooting Sierra 180 grain bullets. The accuracy really impressed me with this load, usually grouping inside an inch at 50 yards with a 2 power Leupold.
