Hornady .458 Lott ammunition (part no. 82614) loads a 500-grain DGX Bonded for dangerous-game hunters taking on the world’s largest, most heavily boned animals. Hornady builds its ammunition around match-grade bullets designed in-house, giving hunters and shooters factory-loaded consistency. A bonded core keeps the jacket locked to the lead through impact, so this bullet mushrooms to full diameter while retaining enough weight for deep penetration on dangerous, thick-skinned game. Brass-cased and 20 to a box, it is built to feed reliably through bolt guns and semi-autos chambered for the cartridge. In our rifle ammunition lineup, this .458 Lott loading is a confirmed, dependable choice worth adding to the cart.
