I hear ya. The 450 Bushy would be way more cnvenient for me, cheaper ammo and more abundant in my area but not legal for deer. Looks like the .458 SOCOM shooting the 300gr Barnes TTSX zeroed at 100 will be about 13.5 inches low at 200 and dropping fast after that. Verify range and wind, aim a foot high of the boiler room and you are having venison for supper for the next few months. I primarily bought it because of the availability of a second shot if the first goes astray and how great it will be hunting the thick pines and thickets around our farm. I doubt I would take a shot over 200 yards, even if conditions were optimal, too many variables and too many other der to take a chance wounding one. I'm after meat primairly and trophy secondary.Scott
