Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Express Rifles and Big Bores Only The great 458 Winchester. Everyone should own one at least once

I typo-ed above, meant to say the .458 WinMag bore is hopefully "LOOSER" (not "loser") than the .45LC.

The NEMO trial conclusion: 72.0 grains of AA-2460 is too much for a "480-ish" grain bullet.

The pointy NOE HTC 459-500 plain base, 494 gr./.461", with PC paint, shot into a group about the size of my hat at 50 yards.
It must be intended for subsonic use.
The long and pointy AM 46-485Z was worse than the shorter FN version AM 46-485N.
Too shameful to show.
None as good as the AM 46-410M (SOCOM) has been so far, and it was best at about 2150 fps,
and it can be fired at 2566 fps MV into a vertically strung 2-MOA 3-shot "group" at 100 yards.
Use same powder charge as used with the 404-gr Shock Hammer.
Good for Shock Hammer practice loads to save dollars.

Ball & shot & squib loads next ...
