458 Lott A Frame
Does anyone have reloading data for a Swift A-Frame / 500 Grain cartridge. I'm loading for a 458 Lott.

My Swift manual does not have the 458 Lott data but it does list data for the 458 Win Mag.
500gr bullets: H335 69.3min 74.5max
H4895 66 71
RL15 67.9 73
RL7 56.7 61
IMR3031 64.2 69
IMR4895 67 72

I hope this helps.

H4895 76-79grs.Have shot alot of 500gr a-frames with this load in my Lott.I just ordered two boxes of 500gr a-frames.I like the pure copper jacket.I prefer the copper over the gilding metal because I believe there is less wear on my lands.The 500gr a-frame is my first or second choice as a soft in my Lott-the other is the 550gr Woodleigh RNSP.There is also less rifling contact on the a-frame compared to the 550 woodleigh because it is shorter and of the curvature.

Any particular powders? I can run them through QuickLOAD for you.
