Though Kirby Allen did a blown out .458 design off the cheytac. I thought This would be a cool project. .458 diameter isn't popular like the .375 but sure gets me thinking.
Predator,gscustom,Leghigh and im sure theres a few others that make high BC solid bulltets for long range use and or big game hunting. I've just been running some numbers and they look good! At least on paper it looks good.
I just don't care for the .50 BMG because its sooooo big and heavy,a .408 case would be a better option to lug around. If the 460 weatherby has that much power,imagine a .458 cheytac based wildcat with a 550gr high BC bullet. Should be a harder hit out to 1500yds but after that im sure the .375 cheytac shines sill show up the .458. Maybe im wrong but i'd love some opinions.
Thanks for reading everyone.
