I think the African hunting talking heads over at AR would say that the .458" 300 grain Nosler Partition Protected Point has a woefully inadequate sectional density for a dangerous game load. A .458" 450 grain bullet (.306 sectional density) launched 2125 fps would yield 4500 fpe, however, those same talking heads would say that it was still inadequate by not reaching the minimum 2150 fps desired for a DGR.
