North Fork bullets reload data

[Quaticman]

Does anyone have a link to North Fork bullets reloading data? I am looking for the .458 450 grain soft point with the .458 Win Mag.

Thanks for the reloading data.

I have some with the 350 Softs, but more geared to my 458 Super Short than higher capacity 458 Winchester......... The highest velocity I tested was 2150 fps with it. But it would most definitely be an excellent bullet for 458 Winchester and lesser critters of course.

I gave the 300s a workout with a little more velocity;

I also tested the 400s and 450s...........

I think the North Fork Softs would be at the top of my Favorite list for Conventional Expanding bullets.

I was very interested in the 325 and 350 CPS...... These particular CPS were designed to basically expand, and give a huge boost to 45/70. Straight from the mouth of John Koegler, prior owner of North Fork, and good friend.

I liked the .458 Expanding CPS so much that I John and I worked on the same concept for my .500 caliber rifles and then later the .474 caliber B&Ms......... These are outstanding bullets. And to the best of my knowledge is carried on today with the new owners.
