458 Rem 700 into a 458 Lott??
Simple question -- I think!?--can a Remington 700 458 be bored out to the Lott configuration??---what else besides running a reamer into the chamber would be required?


OMG!-- my bow is "pull-push feed" - how dreadfully embarrasing!!!!!

That's pretty much all that needs to be done.

375 mag box... and you can't really hurt the value of a 700 in 458 ...

I would do a barrel lug, bedding, cross bolts, and a pin down the wrist, as well.. couple hundred to avoid a broken stock, as i see it.

Plan is to re-stock with a plastic handle -- probably McMillan
