The .461" hardcast is the way to go in a .458 WM, fast or slow, light or heavy:

I have no compulsion to JB Weld the Near base to the rifle.
Simple installation, each fitted-length screw has a dab of blue thread locker on it as it comes from Mr. Near.
Tightening the screws in order, 1-4, seemed to draw the recoil stop into full contact.
No light passes between the recoil stop and rear of receiver ring.
I'll let it go without glass bedding of the recoil stop.
Amazing precision by both Near and the FN Winchester M70 factory.
This 25-MOA Picatinny adds 4 oz to the rifle, and does not interfere with the "express sights."
