The whole point of the Lott was to get a reliable 2150fps without compression and pressure problems associated with the 458 Winchester at the time (which are arguably no longer valid anyway with modern powders).



: Good point. My .458 Alaskan has no trouble making 2,200fps with 500gr. jacketed bullets without compressing the powder charge, only meeting it. The capacity is identical to the .458 WM.
