Welcome to NitroExpress.

I believe the Montana actions you speak of will be produced once 400 units have been pre-sold. The last time I was on their web site the number was around 240. By next fall do you mean 2006?

As for weight with the mentioned calibers, I believe CZ weighs their new 404 Jeffery and 450 Rigby at 10.5 lbs and the 505 Gibbs at 11.5 lbs with a mercury recoil reducer. Double check on their web site as I may be a pound light.

A properly fitting stock will be an issue as well. Currently my biggest rifle is a 375 H&H but I'm sure other members with experience will have something to say.
