Anyone have any to share or know of a source? Thanks.

Oh, PS: Any good sources for the .404 Jefferey brass?

saxonpig, load info for the 460 g&a is scarce indeed. try a topic search at the top right. there is some info there, but not much. i too am interested in the 460 g&a. i bought a 458 wm. in the CZ-550. if i decide i need more power. good luck, halfbreed

overkill? how much more dead, is dead, than dead?

Since I WAS the resident 460G&A "expert" I will offer some info. Try R15 with any 500gr bullet, I'd suggest a starting load of around 86-88grs and work up from there. It is a good round and will deliver very good velocities at moderate pressure BUT it has a very small & shallow shoulder so be very careful with the setting of your resizer die or you will create excessive headspace in short order.
Easiest and best way to make brass is to buy 404 cylinders (no headstamps) from MAST Tech. and then just run them through your resizing die. This will make a shootable case and I advise firing all of them once with a moderate charge before doing any serious load development.
