Tongo, if they don't, you can simply have a .458 Winchester reamed to .450 NE, as the .450 reamer cleans up the belt completely. I had this done several years ago. Just make sure your reamer matches whatever dies and cases you plan to use.


There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn’t.

According to my recollection of a conversation I had with Ken Jorgensen, of Ruger, at DSC.
They will bring out a limited run of classic safari caliber No.1's (Matt finish, Fixed rear V blade sight)5 chamberings in total. Since they announced they will make 450NE ammo, it is probable they will include that chambering.

The real question is how long will you have to wait ? I went the 458 Win to 450 NE route.
