Description

The 460 Weatherby Magnum is on another level entirely. Whether you're hunting Africa's most dangerous game or pushing the limits of what a rifleman can do at distance, this cartridge and its ammunition have earned respect through decades of proven performance. Weatherby Select Plus bridges the gap between handload precision and factory convenience, giving you ammunition you can trust right out of the box.

What Makes This Load Stand Out

The 450-grain Barnes TSX bullet is an all-copper design that expands reliably and retains its weight through bone and tissue. Unlike traditional lead-core bullets, TSX projectiles don't fragment. They mushroom predictably and drive straight through whatever's in front of them, which matters when you're dealing with animals that need to be stopped decisively. At the velocities this cartridge generates, that controlled expansion creates wound channels you don't get from slower rounds. The 2,660 fps muzzle velocity puts 7,072 foot-pounds of energy downrange, about 50 percent more than the .458 Winchester.

Why Weatherby Select Plus Works

Weathery starts with Norma Precision brass for reloadability and consistency, pairs it with premium grade primers, and tops it with careful powder selection that delivers handload-quality precision from a factory round. You get the flattest shooting, hardest hitting combination without having to size and reload cases yourself. The ammunition shoots accurate right out of the factory box, which matters when you're zeroing a rifle for serious game or long-range work.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between this 450-grain load and the 500-grain loads available?

The 450-grain TSX gets you slightly more velocity (2,660 fps versus 2,600 fps for 500-grain) while still delivering plenty of energy. It's a good choice if you want flatter trajectory and faster impact for ranges beyond 100 yards. The heavier 500-grain options are better if you want maximum retained energy at very close range or dealing with extremely heavy bone structure.

Can I reload these brass cases?

Yes. Weatherby Select Plus uses Norma Precision brass, which is considered some of the best brass available for reloading. The cases are durable and consistent, and you'll find plenty of load data from Barnes and other sources specifically for the 460 Weatherby Magnum with the 450-grain TSX bullet.

Will the Barnes TSX bullet expand reliably at the velocity this round produces?

Absolutely. The Barnes TSX is specifically designed to handle the high velocities that modern magnum cartridges produce. At 2,660 fps, you're right in the sweet spot for TSX performance. The bullet expands predictably, retains 95+ percent of its weight, and drives through bone and tissue without fragmenting.

Is this ammunition suitable for long-range hunting?

Yes, though the 460 Weatherby is typically used for closer work. The ballistic coefficient of the 450-grain TSX is approximately 0.369, so it will drop more than lighter, sleeker bullets. Still, the sheer energy retention is impressive at distance, and many hunters use the 460 for dangerous game where ranges rarely exceed 300 yards.
