Mine

Just remember AA 2230 is nectar of the gods for the .458 WM and in monos 450s are best.

IMR 8208
Xterminator
TAC

in that order are good second choices.

433 Grain Cast GC with 39 gr of SR4759, Dacron filler, CCI 200 at 3.275" oal
About 1750-75 fps or so. Great whitetail load.
51 grains of AA 2015 does about the same and works just as well. Makes the 458 with a 2.5 power scope into your favorite carrying and shooting gun year round!
I have some 485 Gardner cast GC that I am going to load over the same charges and expect them to be great as well.
Best regards,

In regards to my above data...I have loaded the CEB 450 solid beside the 420 non-con for equally desirable reults with the same charge of AA-2230. In fact...all 3 bullets (in my rifle) will shoot to close to the same POA.
