45 Cal Solids
Does anyone make a 400 grain solid in .458 cal?

Thanks,
Tom

Barnes Buster Bullets 45-70 Government (458 Diameter) 400 Gr Flat Nose Flat Base Box of 50
Looking for a deep penetrating, non-expanding bullet that maximizes weight retention and bone-crushing results in lever action rifles? Look no further than the Buster Bullets. Similiar to the Barnes Banded Solid bullets, the Buster bullet is a non-expanding bullet that delivers massive results due to its thick copper jacket and heavy lead core. This will also increase the amount of power and penetration needed to take down feral hogs, bears and dangerous African game.

Sgt Brown,

Barnes makes a monolithic solid (free machining brass?) bullet that is a RN.

It had 20% less penetration than heavier solids and FMJ's in my tests.

Would not use it for elephant but everythng else is good to go.

Yes Midway carries Solids for the 458 caliber.
I purchased two boxes a while back.
