Why no .458 cal LR bullets?

[QUOTE="yorke-1, post: 1220456, member: 11960"] I have 2 different .458 wildcats drawn up but I just don't have time to work with them. One should be able to hit around 2400 fps with a 650gr bullet and the other may be in the 2550-2600fps range. They'd both be purpose built long range guns though and not really dual purpose builds. FWIW, I planned on VLD style bullets in the 600+ grain range so you would need the proper twist rate to make them work. Hammer Bullets can make you just about anything you want and I talked to Steve a few weeks back about this exact idea. [/QUOTE]
