Hey Velvetant,
I'd like to see some of those favorite loads for the 358 Norma too! Maybe some of the guys on the new Medium Bores section would help us out!
Good Hunting,

I worked up a good load with Swift 280 gr. A-frames and IMR4350.

It does about 1.25 MOA but I'm still playing with seating depth and crimp.

Charge weight and seating depth will depend on your gun.

I'd go heavy for caliber. That's where you start to see its advantage over the .338s

A near max load of IMR 4350 and a 250 gr spitzer is hard to beat.The Speer & Hornady 250's work but will come apart at close range. The Nosler partition is very good and the Swift may even be better for holding together. RL 19 should be good with the heavier slugs also.

77 gr IMR 4350, with every 250 gr bullet I've tried. 2800 fps, and , depending on the bullet, decent to good accuracy. - Dan
