Hello,

Excuse me, but I'm French and I do not speak your language. Just, I read you for 2 years with google translator.
Thank you to excuse me if I can not answer your questions.
I built a 460-square a short magnum on the basis of a CZ 550 Magnum (WM 458) and I present you. Good luck to all.

The barrel will be cut to 22', the sights are posed and the rifle will be painted black.

My goal is to do a reload 550gr 2300fps for outstanding section density and penetration

Any caliber who as case parent 375 hh ( Lott, Ackley, Watts ) can not reach 2300fps with 550gr.

Just the 460WBY and 450 Rigby, but the WBY as twist 14' and is brutal, and the Rigby request a longer-action

Very good.

By "target organs" do you mean internal parts of the rifle?
