458
Published (2009-11-24 16:01:00)
The 458 WM is a good cartridge, but it has several drawbacks. For one, it has too much terminal performance for most NA uses. There is simply not a need for the kind of penetration that a 458 will deliver. I have not seen a beast that needs a 450-500 grain bullet in the wilds of NA. It has too much recoil for most hunters and very few actually enjoy shooting full power loads in the 458, though I might add I would be in the minority and I...

I imported my ZKK-602 on a Form 6 from Canada back in 1984 and I remember it required special handling because of the customs etc. The shipping and 60% customs were about equal to the price of the gun - around $300 for the gun plus another $300 for the shipping and customs. Czeck was considered a commie county hence the high tarrif. Wish I had gotten a Zeiss Jena scope with it now. I had a Ruger No.1 with scope shipped in from PA a few months...

You could build any of the desired caliber rifles on the Ruger #1 or #3 action and the magnum would be no problem. Not a repeater but neither were Farquarsens and there were many of them used on dangerous game.

I'll keep that in mind about the winchester bullet you used when I p/u an 06 barrel, but 3 out of 3..... can't complain too much. I was still hoping someone out there that uses an encore with a std tc encore barrel can chime in and tell me what kind of groups they get at 50 or 100 yds.

Remington is not doing them anymore. I had the 45-70 and the 30-06 for a few years ran out and bought them and they just did not impress me. they are heavy, not very accurate and just overall in appearance and performance $ucked. I thought it would be a great base rifle to modify as I wanted to have the -06 bored out to a 35 Whelen, but no gunsmith wanted anything to do with that and I...

Ih he was shooting factory ammo first thing I would do is insert a cleaning rod into the muzzle and measure how far it goes in to confirm the case is empty. If empty, call Ruger and ask them for a prepaid mailer to send it back to them. Reloads, someone may of made a mistake but the rifle needs to get back to a smith

The only thing I ever shot with my 458 lott (loaded to 458 win levels) was a 1" steel plate @ 50 yds. (not the brightest thing I've done in the world but lets not go there ) I shot it with both the 350 gr speer and the 350 gr hornady. As I recall, the hornady had a larger dia shallower divot than the speer 350, and as I recall the 350 hornady was leaving the muzzle at 2400 fps, the 350 ...

1. Are you going to really like the rifle once you get it all screwed together? 2. Can afford to be 2 times over budget on the original project and still hide it from the Mrs? 3. Once you put big bucks into the project and get it transformed from a basket of parts into a work of art, will you still take it to the bush hunting? 4. Can you stomach seeing the same configuration of rifle ...

Same cartridge. A-Square is the licensed manufacturer that finally submitted specs to SAAMI for certification, hence the A-Square tag.

http://www.sskindustries.com/50.htm I'm thinking the 510 Whisper would duplicate muzzleloader ballistics with a 750gr at 1050fps. Of course you could step up to the 50 Peacekeeper which pushes the same bullet to 2200fps.

About all I can tell you is what's in an '89 Gun Digest. It was introduced in '84. Comes w/a 22"bbl,no open sights,6 1/4#, and walnut stock(optional Win-Tuff lam. stock). GOOD yrs for Winchester quality.

I have read most of the break in stuff and I think what the gun Loony/writer Jon Barsness suggested makes sense. Shoot it until the group opens up clean it and shoot it some more. I got the impression it does not take a lot of shots to smooth things up. Some of the hot shot magnums are not going to have a long barrel life anyhow. Anyway my 2 Cents

I think you'll find that most people just don't cotton to the recoil of the 458, hence it just isn't that popular. Handloaded with a 350 gr bullet @ 2400-2500 fps it has the same trajectory as the 375 H&H w/ 300's, and recoil is in the same ball park. The other thing is, the only animal such a rig would be used for is the biggest bears, and there aren't that many people that hunt just the ...

This allows the owner of the weapon to know where it is via GPS. It also allows the owner to shut down the weapon in case it falls into the wrong hands; Just like an ON-STAR in your vehicle.
