the 458 Lott is probably the best our there, if one can handle the recoil, most cannot, many think they can...

That said, if you can shoot it without recoil being a factor in your mind when you pull the trigger, and you can do this from squatting, prone, bent over and in about any field position, then your sitting in the pound seats, it is one heck of a hammer, I can't imagine a better more practical round,...

But for me, and I have been shooting big bores all my life, I find it a little abusive and I have to concentrate on not flinching, so although I can shoot it at the range and even off the bench, I do not hunt with it, its just a bit much for me, as was my 505 Gibbs. I settled for the 404, 416 Rem in bolt guns..My heavey .470 is tolerable, at least to the extent that I can hunt with it...As to the Lott and I, its close but no cigar...
