Cartridges are held in various carriers including a brown plastic belt carrier, a black plastic tray, and a white styrofoam insert. Marking transcriptions on the headstamps include R-P 458 WIN MAG and W-W SUPER 458 WIN MAG, denoting production by Remington-Peters and Winchester-Western. The ammunition features both traditional brass and nickel-plated casings with various projectile types.
