Had a Ruger 77 in 458 Win Mag and loved it. Hand loaded for it and used 300 and 350 grain bullets on smallish Georgia whitetail. The ONLY negative was the rifle's weight with it's steel Weaver K2.5X scope. It came with a box of 500 solids and 13 were unfired. I'm glad the rifle had every ounce of weight when I shot THOSE rounds. I never found a tree the 500s wouldn't penetrate.
After selling it I built a 458x2" American on a short action Ruger 77 Mark II. Both very useful rifles.
