Impala make a solid in .458 calibre, should do fine in the 45-70

GS Custom makes solids (Flatnose) as well; don't know the weight though.

Re: 45-70gov solids
When you purchase Impala bullets you get extremely good service with the purchase, I am shooting .404 Jeffery using 320 gn Impala bullets , I am impressed it is unlikely I will use other bullets than Impala. If the service is so excellent , I think the bullets will be more than excellent. I still need to hunt with them, but I do not doubt the results . Kobus Du Plessis gives excellent after sale service.

I don't believe that you can load anything over 350gr. The finished round will be too long to feed.

If interested, although not solids, I have 100 x 500 gr Goodnel Bushmasters at a real good price
