It is mostly personal preference stuff. Several years ago I had both a 375 and a 458 Super Express. I sold them for dirt, but did like the fact that the 458 only weighed about 8 1/2 lbs.

I recently bought another 458 Super Express, like new, and like it. The Monte Carlo is not that extreme to make a difference using open sights (using a ghost ring rear sight). I think the fit and finish is better than the new ones. I'm easily getting 2150 fps with 500 gr. solids.

I was trying to sell it on AR for a couple days (like I need another big bore) but decided it was too nice to sell, and I'll tag a couple jumbo this year with it.

If you decide to pass on that Super Express I would appreciate the contact information.
