458 socom deer load

[trsowders76]

I have recently got into the 458 socom for deer hunting and was wondering if anyone has a good load worked up?

Was also wondering about the lee dies have heard of a lot of people who have trouble with them

I did a short write-up of my 458 SOCOM loading here: https://www.indianagunowners.com/fo...92-first-time-reloading-firing-458-socom.html

I can't imagine that these loads wouldn't drop a buck in his tracks. The soft-nose bullets coupled with plenty of velocity should expand well.

I have a Lee die set and didn't have any issues with it. What kind of trouble have you heard of?

I'm using Hornady dies and the 325 gr. FTX with 33.5 gr of H110 with CCI 350 primers. Drops deer in their tracks.
