Why no .458 cal LR bullets?

[QUOTE="IdahoCTD, post: 1220207, member: 13110"] A 500gr bullet from a 458wm only does around 2100fps and out of a Lott around 2300fps. That doesn't translate into long range very well. CEB also makes a 340gr .416 with a .780 BC that can be pushed to 2600+ from a standard 416 Rem or 2800+ from a Weatherby or long barreled 416RUM. That would make a much better choice for long range. I'm sure CEB will make you whatever custom bullet you want as long as you pay for several hundred up front. [/QUOTE]
