Foxfire--- I guess we need NFrame to set us straight as if the WIN MAG was X'd out--everyone I've heard of was, but that doesn't mean all of them were--

did you know that the 458 lott can fire 458 win mag ammo

so one could take their 458 lott to Africa with 458 win mag ammo--

how the paperwork is handled is another story that will have to be confirmed by someone who's been there done it---but as long as you fill out the proper forms and note the markings(X'd out or not) that are needed to get your rifle into another country and then back into the U.S. I don't think there would be a prob--but again one never knows--chris
