Getting my first Mihec, need some load reccomendations - 358-180-rf HP

[Angus]

So I just got an invoice from Miha for one of his 358-180-rf HP molds that he had in inventory. I have a fresh yummy jug of 296 and was wondering where people are seeing best accuracy with this boolit. It will be shot in my 5" M60 as a woods carry and backup while whitetail hunting, and in a 6" model 28. Should I use magnum or regular SP primers? It's my first foray into using 296.

I've used the similar bullet in my avatar with 13.5gr H110 (which is the clone powder of W296). Never chronoed it, but it was a good shooter. I used magnum primers just because I was told it was necessary for ball powder.

I shoot the Lee GB 358-180RF with 13.6grs of 296 using a Winchester Mag primer. That combo shoots like a dream out of my 6" S&W M686.

AA9 and 2400 are working out better for me. I like AA9 best, so far.
