    What diameter do you size to for yours? Is it an semi or bolt?

    The NOE 247gr is essentially a copy of the Lyman 358318. Ordered the NOE on their restart sale this spring but have yet to break it in.

    The .358 Win is a nice shooter with most things I’ve tried in the standard range, have yet to experiment with the NEI 300gr though.

    I am powder coating but not quenching. I let them air cool. The 1,1,98 does well at the 1400 fps but marginal from my revolver at 1000fps. Ill post some pics tomorrow after testing a softer alloy in the 357's. 2,2,96 is phenomenal from the 350 legend.

    Gotcha, I have lots of COWW and 95:3:2 among other things-I should be able to figure out something.

    It’ll be for a bolt gun for me, so not sure if comparable with an AR style.
