I just got a new 460 and I'm looking for any pet loads that any of you guys might have. I'm running H4350 right now but I have varget, cfe223, rl16 and a bunch of other stuff so let me know what you got. I'm interested in 350gr on up to the the 500 and up.
 
Here is one of my game loads and one that I shoot quite often.

CASE: Weatherby 460 Magnum

PRIMER: Federal 215

POWDER: H-4895 / 105.0 grains

BULLET: Hornady 350 gr. Round Nose
 
You're welcome.

You should be able to have a lot of fun with the above mentioned load. I shoot it in a custom 460 Weatherby Magnum with a 31" barrel plus the addition of a muzzle brake.

Velocity exceeds 3,000 fps. and as far as recoil goes, I have shot several rifles chambered in 30-06 that had a more brutal recoil than what this rifle has got.

Hello,

Am I reading your post correctly to say that the Tsavo rifle will be coming out with a composite stock later this year? I ask because I had been looking very hard for a Tsavo, but if there is going to be a composite stock model I will wait for that.

Thank you for your time,

Andrew

Saw your post. Nice. Denver too. Genesee area (just off 70) if ever up this way. Alternatively, do you have a membership at GGC? Whatever, you'll have a wonderful time in Africa. Enjoy.
