Eyeman......

Some time ago I did a tiny bit of load data with the 458 Win and 458 Lott and the BBW#13s..... You can find this on the B&M website under "Additional Research" page...... Scroll down, there is a downloadable pdf document with that data......

Direct Link to Additional Research page...

Basic jest I did TAC, IMR 8208, and RL 15 with the 450s... 2365-2390 fps.... Not a starting load... But probably not top end pressures either....

Maybe it gives you some ideas of where to get started....
