The charm of this cartridge is its power contained in a brass of standard length. The problem was that the gunpowder in those times was not as evolved as in our days. Today the 458 WM is fully valid and reproduces the ballistic of the mythical 470 NE. If we want more speed and kinetic energy, we have to go to 458 Lott and above but these no longer use short brass.

Ovny.
