Is is possible/advisable to run .358 jacketed bullets through something like a Lee sizing die that fits on a loading press? Trying to come up with some reasonably priced jacketed bullets for an old Mannlicher with a .354 bore. THanks

Yeah, it's possible. Even easy if you will settle for .356 which is a stock size. Lee will make you a custom .354 for $25 bucks, though. If you insist on .354, get both and do it in steps. Just get a trace of lanolin or Imperial on your hands, rub a few bullets between your hands, and shuck them through.

If 180 grains will do you, the .357 bullets for the .357 Max would be the easiest to resize. I'd even be willing to shoot them through a .354 bore without sizing them down.
