LEHIGH DEFENSE
DANGEROUS GAME 458 CALIBER (0.458") BULLETS

810025507534 430101365
The concept of a Wide Flat Nose (WFN) projectile is nothing new or groundbreaking, but it does leave room for improvement. It is a proven projectile design that has been around for many years and has successfully been utilized by hunters all over the world who demand deep and straight-line penetration for their hunt. Lehigh Defense has taken this proven technology, and incorporated it into our very own lineup of improved WFN’s made of solid copper. Lead has a very high density and does a great job at penetrating deep, but it lacks any real structural integrity. Lead is quite soft, especially when compared to copper. The solid copper WFN line of projectiles have a tensile strength of 10-20x greater than conventional lead projectiles. This massive increase in strength allows the WFNs to punch through the hardest of bone with little to no deformation, which nearly eliminates the possibility of deflection due to the projectile deforming. SPECIFICATIONS: Cartridge: 45-70 Government Best Used For: Hunting Notes: Meplat diameter is 0.346" Ballistic Coefficient (G1): 0.259 Box Quantity: 50 Bullet Material: Copper Bullet Caliber: .458 Bullet Length: 1.130 Minimum Impact Velocity (fps): 750 Maximum Muzzle Velocity (fps): 5000 Bullet Technology: Wide Flat Nose Bullet Weight (gr): 380.00 Velocity Sensitivity: No Gun Type: Rifle Lead Free Bullet: Yes Minimum Twist Rate: 1:30 Ogive Length (inches): 0.425 Sectional Density: .259 Velocity Rating: Supersonic
