Heavy for Caliber Bullets 450 Bushmaster
By John L.

I wanted a heavy for caliber bullet for my 450 Bushmaster. Buffalo Bore makes 360 gr, but at $3 a round, it made more sense to reload with my Hornady press. Graf and Sons had a good price and fast delivery of 360 and 400 gr bullets plus the Hornady dies. When I go to Alaska, I’ll be ready for those big bear encounters.
400 Gr hardcast in 45 Win Mag and Encore Rifle

I Purchased a couple hundred of these hard cast bullets for use in my 45 Winchester Magnum Thompson Center encore. This rifle has a 16 1/4 inch barrel and I use a suppressor. I wanted the most energy I could get while still staying below the speed of sound. This cartridge and bullet combination along with Alliant 2400 powder & a CCI 350 primer was just the ticket. Very accurate and hits like a sledgehammer. Maximum pressure’s in this rifle, bullet, primer combo Proved to be Just barely over the speed of sound. A reduction of only 1/2 grain below max pressure was required in order to utilize the maximum power offered by this cartridge with the 16 inch barrel length. Very accurate and very powerful, while still remaining quiet! I will buy again!
