.375 to 450 watts/ lott

I have a Zastava 375 and was just wondering if one could convert this to a watts or a lott. How hard is it?

I'm sure its been done before, but personally I don't believe there is enough meat in the bottom bolt/action lug to convert it to a Lott, but I'm happy to stand corrected.

Why? It's already opened up for the long cartridge. Haven't checked, is the Lott pressure higher than .375 H&H or "Roy"? Seems to me if it's a problem it should never have been a .375.

Been there, done that. It works fine, you will need to massage the rails for proper feeding/release. I can't remember, but I think we worked the magazine to hold three down and still feed well.
