[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 177592, member: 8843"] Well your kind of limited to the componets for reloading for that big case , their arn't many bullet out their that are accuracy minded for the 458 Win. I would think that the limiting factor in the accuracy of that gun is going to be recoil its hard to have good shooting for and follow through with a gun that kicks the hell out of you. I reloaded for a buddies 458 Lott its a custom built on a new CRF winchester with a 24" Pac-Nor barrel and Vias brake in a High-Tech specialties stock ,the recoil is very noticable but not overly abusive about like an unbraked light weight 30-06. The load was 82grs of H-335loaded in a Hornady case under a 465gr A-square bullet with a velocity average of 2378fps. Accuracy from a bench rest with a PAST shooter pad would run in the 1 MOA range to 200yds. He ended up shooting a big coastal brown bear with it at just under 100yds and broke him down on the spot. How far are you planning to shoot this thing and at what? [/QUOTE]
