.458 bullets - Opinions Welcome
As I lay in a supply of components to get my 458 Lott ready I may as well get some bullets. At this time I have no need to go with 500 grain slugs and am looking for bullets in the range of 400-450 for my moose and brown bear hunting.
What are some brands you big bore addicts been happy with?


My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

Why 400-450 gr? The Lott will throw a 350gr nearly 2700 fps, more than enough energy for moose/bear. The flatter trajectory would be a plus, and hornady makes a pretty good 350 gr. Interlock round nose that won't bust your wallet.

My 375 will toss a 300 gr out at 2,600. I want bigger,lol
