Does anyone reload 358 Norma Mag?

Hello everyone,

I just got a 358 NM and will have to reload for it as I am not paying $8 a round to shot it. Just looking for a place to start on this one and would love to see what y’all have come up with!

What are your preferred loads?
Are there bullets or powder you have had better luck with?

I have Sierra pro-Hunter 200gr bullets, Speer hot- cor 250gr bullets, Hornady 250gr interlock, and some 250gr unmarked jacketed bullets.

Ruger M77/44 feeding issue

Hey guys,

New to me rifle. .44 mag Ruger M77/44. Rounds 1 and 2 feed fine, but 3 and 4 do this (unless the bolt is worked with gusto) (pics).
