Where did you get the brass peen made? I need on for a 416 WSM and 458 B&M.
Look up .458 Imperial Mag In Cartridges of the world. That’s pretty much what you have there.I've been tossing around ideas for the Model 70 Classic in 300 RUM I have, and remembered a gun my brother owned briefly back in '09 or so and that I had a dummy round still on hand.

A guy had it built for a dangerous game hunt on a R700 (I know, the horror). It had this cheesy single stack plastic mag extension that would dump all the rounds every time you fired. I fired it once from standing and really wasn't too bad for a 9ish lb rifle, but it was braked. Anyways, it sure looked good and fed well in the M70 action!

I was a little suprised to not find more on it while searching last night. I found one reference to a .458 RUM and another for a .458 Super Cat. I'm assuming a bit more power than necessary and lack of properly headstamped brass is at least partially to blame.
