460 weatherby

Anybody reloading cast bullets in a 460 weatherby
should be fun 500 gr bullet at 2000 fps

thus turning your 460 into a 458 win mag

See if you can source some 700 grain goodies and drive THEM to 2000

700 ?

never heard of 700 grain .458 bullets, sounds interesting.
i load 300 grain varmint bullets in the 460 at 2900 fps

700 grainers in a 460 case would look like a cohiba robusto.

I doubt you'll find any 700 grain jacketed bullets, but with cast anything is possible

You might be able to find some 600 gr .458 Game Ranger bullets - Marstar had them for a while I think. NEI Handtools has a 645 gr .458 flatnose gas check mould that would work well in a .460. It appears to be a pretty long bullet, so anything heavier might be difficult to stabilize in a standard twist barrel.
