This rifle weighs 10.3 LBS. Will shoot a three shot group that is 1" at 100 yds. Can kill any animal in the world. Mine is the CZ 550 American Safari 458 Lott.

Best I have managed with the Ruger RSM is 1.2" with 88.4 grains of DP74 and a Hornady 500 grain soft point. Recoil is no joke.

the Lott might just be the best all-around big game round available today. It has tremendous power, and will fit into most standard long magnum actions. I think it might be best with the 550gr bullets at about 2200fps. If I had not run into a bargain priced CZ in 450 Dakota early this year, I would have one in the gun rack. Heck, I may have one pretty soon any way. Any serious shooter SHOULD own one if he/she has room for a 45 caliber rifle in the rack.

Sounds like a keeper to me with that kind of accuracy although I would put that beast on a diet and loose a pound or more if it were mine. Smiler
