Wow, the pricing isn't all that bad for the .458 version up on Midwayusa ... $27 per 50.

That's what I've been wanting to try them in also. Hope to safely get them to 2400 fps, should be a great flat shooting load.

Ouch. BLR perhaps?

I think they are still in the pipe and not yet to the suppliers ... though Midway lists them. I wonder if Hornady will sell and ship directly?

Quickload lists 60K PSI as max for the 356 Win. This is why I stipulated 59K as absolute max.
