Sir Bob,

Excellent results with 400-grainer and RL-15.

Ditto the compressed loading of RL-17 creative use in the 9.3x62mm Mauser, in your latest blog installment.
That is also a great powder for the 12Ga From Hell.
It is very reliably ignited by a 209 shotgun primer, even in charges up to 180 grains.
RL-17 is a very interesting powder.

I agree, a .458-400-grainer at 1400 fps to 2600 fps, soft and solid, is all we need in the .458 WM and .458 WM+.

The Barnes Buster, the T/C Bone Crusher, Woodleigh HYDRO, or the GSC FN 400-grainer are all very interesting magazine fillers as stopping bullet solids,
should a 400-grain soft point need backup in the .458 WM.
