458 Win Mag vs 458 Lott....The facts

In Toby's post, the attachment picture is of my CZ 458 Winchester / 458 Lott, MRC 458 Lott, Interarms 458 Winchester, and 458 Winchester M70 Classic Super Express - with my measurements using the 450 TSX. This is COL touching the lands, of my rifles.

Edit: my CZ is a CZ 550 Safari Classics, with the CZ-USA Kansas City, KS stamping.

In the case of my MRC 458 Lott compared to my 458 Winchester Model 70, at equal COL with the same bullet; the Winchester is going have / provide an additional .1" bullet jump. Which I suppose can be your friend or foe, depending on what bullet and how you are loading it. A plethora of choices.

Morning Rob, Any feeling for how the 300 H&H shoots? How's the barrel condition?

Hello. I see you hunted with Sampie recently. If you don't mind me asking, where did you hunt with him? Zim or SA? And was it with a bow? What did you hunt?

I am possibly going to book with him soon.
Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
To much to political shit, to little Africa :-)
