nope, IMO neither one was. the .458 was a new ruger, the 45-90 was a recent reproduction sharps shiloh- altho they are exotic enough to make you really wince at ammo prices.

Then again, the ammo price kind of evens itself out by how many you can actually fire. When I had my 454 Casull, the factory ammo was $114 (in 1992), then again, a box (50 rounds) was more than enough...
