Heavy Weight .458 Cast Bullet

Here is the heaviest cast bullet available for the .458 Winchester Magnum and .458 Lott. It's a 720 grain long flat nose gas check cast bullet. It's designed for maximum penetration and knock down power in the .458 diameter. It can also be used in the 45-90, 45-100 and 45-120. This cast bullet penetrates like a freight train. It's an LBT design and is accurate.
















The 720 grain cast bullet can be loaded to 1675 fps from the .458 Winchester Magnum and 1900 fps from the .458 Lott using Alliant 2400 powder. At these moderate velocities, the 720 grain cast bullet penetrates through tough muscle and thick bones. It should be ideal for buffalo, elephant, hippo and rhino.

Hard cast bullets penetrate much deeper at moderate velocities. The ideal velocity is around 1500 - 1600 fps.

The 720 grain custom cast bullet is available from KDM Custom Bullets.
