THAT will depend on your chamber - Haven't yet found a rifle with the 'undersized' chamber to be used for this practice - and .458 is groove diameter, by the way. .450 - .451 would be land diameter. Maybe he meant to use a land diameter bullet (.451) , patched up to bore diameter (.45" src="http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/glasses.gif"> ? Sounds more probable. Anyway, say hi to Mark when you see him - hope to be over more than once this year...

There has been a lot of talk on the cast bullet site about BP paper patched bullets,patched to bore diameter shooting very well,this has come from members that are routinely wining long rang shoots,so there must be something in it,although it goes against...
