    Lyman 457193 in 458 Win Mag

    Have a friend who has the rifle, was wondering if anyone has any experience with this bullet/caliber combination. He just wants a "plinker" load. Any help would be much appreciated!!

    Thanks,

    I use this bullet in my .458 Win Mag with 25 grains of SR4759. Easy on the shoulder and very accurate. I cast from a 50/50 mix of pure lead and wheel-weight alloy, size to .460 and lube with LBT blue. Other loads I have tried used 30 grains of RX7 or 28 grains of IMR4198. All were accurate and low recoil. SR4759 seems to give the best accuracy and is not position sensitive so yo don;t need an "over-powder" wad to keep the fuel back at the primer end.
