Re: Can you rechamber a 7mm rem mag to a 458 win mag?

Savage made a 116 Safari Express in .300 Win magnum, .338 Win magnum, .375 H&H, and .458 Winchester magnum. They employed a 22 inch barrel. Two inches was a sleeved muzzle brake that could be turned on and off very easily. So, in effect, you had a 24 inch barrel. The metal work was stainless, the stock was wood, and the express sights were stainless as well. There were two cross bolts and a good recoil pad. Google it for a reference as too what can be done to a Savage for express work.

I believe, but not 100% certain, that they employed a detachable box magazine. A Savage accu-trigger would not only be out of place, it would be an unmitigated disaster.
