virgin SBR 375 SOCOM brass necked down to 358

Fiocchi LPP.

Average FPS is 2252. which is plenty fast for NC game.

SD/ES is crap but the group is good.

I'm a big fan of the 458 SOCOM, so I can't imagine the speed you are getting with a .358! Now that's a 9mm LOL

Maybe the SD's will get a little better if you used a magnum primer. That is a lot of powder for a primer meant for things like 45 acp.

I was considering a 358 Yeti and this sounds like it might be easier? They run that Yeti pretty hot.
