you can have all the SD in the world, but you still have to drive the bullet fast enough to use all that sectional density, therefore the 500 gr. 458 will out penetrate the 380 gr. 375, at least in my tests...The 300 gr. 375 at a faster velocity, say 2500 FPS will come close to the 458 but not quite it seems.
