[QUOTE="engineer40, post: 1598545, member: 90399"] I've used these 300gr bullets in my 460SW rifle and they did good. Might be worth a try if you can find some? [URL]https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1002233132/hornady-sst-ml-muzzleloading-bullets-no-sabot-45-caliber-452-diameter-300-grain-box-of-50[/URL] If you could resize a .458 bullet down to .452 there are better lead cast options without going custom mold. I know the Lee 500gr .458 has a BC of .443. I don't know if my 460SW Mag rifle would have the twist rate to stabilize a bullet that heavy. My 460SW mag rifle is a TC Encore Pro Hunter Katahdin. It's not very accurate so I'm personally not going to put in any additional effort with it. As a side note for anyone with a 450BM, I found cheap 45acp bullets that hold up to 450BM pressures and velocity. I use these in my 450BM plinking loads and they work great. POI is off from the normal 250gr Hornady ammo, but nothing is perfect I guess. At least these bullets are only around 16 cents a piece and they hold together, whereas most 45acp bullets to do when shot from a 450BM.
