Description
The 458 Lott is the ideal caliber for hunting dangerous and thicker skinned game such as rhinoceros, elephant, and cape buffalo. Heck, with this round’s 500 grain bullet you could probably even put a damper on a blue whale’s plans. The bullet’s tremendous bulk isn’t the only reason for its efficacy against the toughest beasts to roam the earth, because it is a Dangerous Game Solid (DGS) by Hornady.
rThe DGS features a broad, flat nose that delivers staggering energy on impact, and which is less likely to be turned aside by extremely thick hide. The DGS doesn’t expand as it burrows within game. Instead it smashes through thick muscle and obstinate bone alike, a feat it achieves thanks to the heavy copper clad steel enveloping its tough, high antimony lead core. If you hunt for dangerous game with Hornady’s DGX bullet as well, you’ll appreciate how the identically shaped bullets provide interchangeable performance.
