RemUltraMagRechambering a 375 H&H Mag
Can you guys recommend a new chambering for my Rem700 375 H&H. What options do I have to rechamber it and what kinda work is involved. Is it possible to go to 458 Lott and how safe is it to fire 458 Win Mag out of it. Can someone give me info on the 458 Lott and 458 Watts Mag.

Paul HYou might want to check the African Hunting Forumn

The biggest you can go with the same case is the 470 capstick.
As far as what work is involved, depends on how involved you want it to be. A simple barrel job would be the start, possibly some work to the feed rails, and maybe a bigger extractor.
You'd likely be $'s ahead selling the 375 H&H, getting a CZ 550 458 win mag and having it re-chambered.
