grettlerj458 Lott ammo for non handloader?
Hello All,
I have been coming to this site for about 2 years and finally decided to sign up. I really enjoy coming here reading all of the interesting posts. My question is, I am thinking about purchasing a Ruger 458 Lott and was wondering what are my choices for ammo besides Hornady if I am not a handloader? Thanks in advance
I know A-Square loads factory ammunition. Here's Midwayusa's site with Hornady and A-square.

I believe they will be using either Trophy Bonded BearClaws and SledgeHammer solids, or Barnes TSX and Banded Solids.
Might want to contact them.

retreeverYou may even find a gun store that will reload for you..Will be a heck of alot cheaper...I shoot the Ruger in 458Lott...Used it on buf and bull ele...It becomes addicting shooting the big bores...I really have no desire to shoot smaller rifles...
I like Hornady 500gr RN softs for plinking and the box of bullets is cheap to shoot...
