Don't know whether to start a new thread or not but had the 458 out in a tactical match on a "smack the smiley" type target.
I shot poorly using the 325 grain Hornady with 40 grain of H4198 but won - the use of a 458 removes any evidence of the "smiley" from the target. The bolt gun is a better alternative to a semi - and an AI stock with a 22x NXS helps a lot.
The problem I had was riding the stock properly through recoil. When I did my part with it the bullet hit where I wanted it to but the rear stock would slide up my hand on the butt.
Over all very positive. Want to go hunting with it now!
