      Buying .458 Winchester Magnum Ammunition in Australia

      Magnum Sports lists eight .458 Winchester Magnum loads, five available today, from Federal, Barnes, Norma and Hornady. The .458 Winchester Magnum is a classic dangerous-game cartridge; in Australia it is used mainly on buffalo and scrub bulls in the Northern Territory and by hunters preparing for African safaris.

      Ammunition is only sold to a person holding a licence or permit for a firearm of that calibre, which Magnum Sports sights at the counter. All ammunition is collected from the Roseville Chase store only and is never posted or couriered; you can order online to have it put aside.

      The Norma 500gr Solid is the lowest-priced listing at $238 (special order). In stock, the Hornady 500gr DGS is $323, Federal Cape-Shok 500gr TBBC $363, the Barnes TSX and banded solid $406 each, and Federal Cape-Shok 500gr TBS $432.

      For buffalo, many hunters carry a soft for the first shot and solids for follow-ups: the Federal Cape-Shok 500gr TBBC or Barnes 450gr TSX paired with the Barnes banded solid or Federal 500gr TBS covers that. The Hornady 500gr DGS is the lowest-priced solid in stock for practice and backup.
