Need 458 Lott cases
Hi Folks.
I have looked on most sites I know and all are sold out or on back order. Does anyone know where I can get 50-100 458 Lott cases in the next few days. I have a friend/client coming out on the 23rd and would like him to bring them out for me, thanks for any advise.

Shangaan:

www.grafs.com showed Norma and Hornady in stock. www.midwayusa.com showed Norma.

An alternative for you in Zim would be to contact Don Heath as he now is a consultant for Norma. Perhaps he can help you.

Good Luck.

If you can get Hornady's Basic Belted Brass it will easily form into Lott brass with a pass thru the sizer and a bit of trimming.

Its a bit cheaper and I use the same load data as I use for Hornady Lott brass.

The only draw back might be the lack of any headstamp.

Thanks folks for the hints and advise, will see what I can do, for the timeline I have I asked my friend to bring out some Norma cases from Midway, a little on the expensive side but got to start somewhere, thanks again. All the best.

try www.safariandoutdoor.co.za , they have and are the closest thing to an american style shop this side of the pond. Reasonable prices all things considered

PMP are now producing cases for the Lott
I am not sure about prices compared to Midway but at the time I was just happy to get cases of any sort.

I've got some (95+) Hornady .458 Basic brass, a slight trim and they're .458 Lott. PM me if your intersted.

Sorry, didn't see right away that you are Zim.

Hornadys web site shows them at $63.00 per 50, I have used them, they are good, but you can get them for less thru a dealer or mail order
