Lee: The prairie dog thumpin' .457 Wild West Magnum loads use bonded core 350 grain Kodiak "Bear" extra thick jacketed bullets that cost $69.99 per box of 20. At $3.50 per round, I hate when those tough little critters need shootin' more than once to put 'em down! And after cleaning one that's been shot twice or more, there ain't much left for eatin' either! If you're planning a trip back to Kansas anytime soon, let me know and I'll take you on Safari. Bet you ain't never experienced a charging prarie dog in Tennessee. If you don't have a big enough gun, I've also got a 460 Weatherby Magnum that you can use, but you'll have to buy your own ammunition. Best regards, Jim
