Bullet ?
I have a few Bullets I am considering trying out in my Savage MLand was wondering if anyone had any experiences with them. Both are .458 rounds that are made for the 45/70. The first is a Nosler 300 gr protected point partition bullet. The second choice is a Sierra 300 gr HP/FN in thier pro hunter series. Thanks in advance for any replies.

Best Wishes on your choice, Oh, my opinion is the Harvester's are a better sabot in the Savage, they hold up better than the Orange MMP. The CR is designed for .452 bullets and it works perfect in .458 diameters. Chap

RE: Bullet ?
I'm familiar with both brands in centerfire shooting, and you're dealing with two good brands. Nosler will be a little more high-end, but that doesn't necessarily mean greater performance. Tough choice. Guess you'll have to shoot both and see what you like
