[QUOTE="quigley257, post: 3097369, member: 84442"] We built a 458 Lott a few months back for a customer. If I remember correctly, the rifle was a bit over 8 lbs and threw the 500gr Hornady bullets at right around 2250 fps. It was not pleasant to shoot. The big bores are a different kind of recoil and I definitely prefer it over getting slapped by one of our light weight 300 WSMs. Many people will look at a 375 H&H cartridge and think that they would be just awful to shoot but they're really much more of a push than a kick especially in an appropriate sized rifle.
