As a matter of fact, it seems to make sense to start with a 458 Lott chambered barrel to rechamber to 460 G&A. Both cases are 2.8” long and COAL is 3.6”. What do you see as a problem with that plan?

BTW, I’m planning on a 23” barrel, probably a Douglas with a target weight of +/- 4 lbs. Target rifle weight is 10-10 1/2 lbs.


The 458 Win mag has a much longer throat than does the 458 Lott
