Sir Jerry,
That is a humorous way to put it, saving ass hide, touche'.
Ms. Piggy ought to be good for that even if she is not much to look at.
Ms. Piggy the .458 Watts Express.

I am going to pull the old bullets from that old Hornady .458 Lott ammo,
dump the powder, de-prime and FL size the "new" brass, prime with F215
and load them with maximum manual loads for the .458 Lott, with bullets and powders matching the manual.

Maximum .458 Lott loads are starting loads for the .458 WE.
Then we find the best-balance 400&404 loads for the .458 WE at a modest +2500 fps.
Maybe same as your 2520 fps loads for the .458 WM+ 404-gr Shock Hammer.
I am guessing AA-2460 may be tops in the .458 WE.
