It is too important not to repeat it here. We spend an awful "lott" of time extolling the virtues of shot placement over cartridges used, yet the .458 Winchester had a continual barrage of slander over too many years for lousy factory ammo and poor bullet placement. Neither issue had anything to do with the cartridge design.

Powder and bullet improvements since the 1960's make the old yarns irrelevant to the modern .458 user.

Definitely worth repeating, Sir Woods, what with Lottite reading comprehension being what it is.
So there, I repeated it again, hoping it will get through the Lott of thick noggins still out there.
