Looks like a .458 win mag, to me.......

You are talking about the one at the top of the forum page, aren't you?

I stand corrected -- I just laid a Hornady .458 Lott on top of it and it is indeed a Lott...... Big Grin

I thought it was as I initially posted, but it must be a little bigger in scale as the Lott I laid over it matched its length.......

On my 'puter, the rim measures 17.5mm & the case length 85mm near as I can measure, this scales to a case length of 2.58", so its near enough to a 458 Win for me. I've always thought it looked like a 458 Win from the proportions. Wink

Depends on your screen resolution. If you use 480 x 640 (for blind people) . . . the case is 4.25" and the COL is 5.625". Bullet width is 0.75".

But the URL says:
