The .458 Winchester Magnum is a belted, straight-taper cased dangerous game rifle cartridge. It was introduced commercially in 1956 by Winchester and first chambered in the Winchester Model 70 African rifle. It designed to compete against the .450 Nitro Express and the .470 Nitro Express cartridges used in big bore British double rifles.
The .458 Winchester Magnum was designed for hunting dangerous game animals by emulating the performance of powerful English double rifle cartridges in a bolt-action rifle.
