The XTP is a pistol bullet. The XTP Mag is a pistol bullet that the copper in the nose has been extend and rolled over into the HP so that it will withstand the higher velocities. The Hornady .458 300 grain HP is strictly a rifle bullet (45-70) with a hollow point cavity. The copper on the .458 is thicker and will hold the bullet together better than pistol bullets at the higher velocities of a rifle.
The sabots i sent are MMP-HPH .458 Orange. I do not believe you can get them from Knight any more as Del Ramsey bought their machine. Cayugad did a comparison for me of the two and I think he thought they were pretty much the same.
