My wife and I have very little experience with large bore dangerous game rifles but we fell in love with shooting them during a session at our range last spring.
We were introduced to the .458 Lott in the Ruger bolt platform by a friend who has some experience hunting dangerous game both here and in Africa. He soon had us both shooting what he referred to as "Minute of Cape Buffalo" groups (three rounds into a circle the size of a dinner plate at fifty yards, off hand, as fast as you can work the bolt and reacquire a sight picture).
Now we are determined to add a .458 Lott to our gun safe even though we are unlikely to become angry enough at a large beast to want to travel to some exotic location and kill it. We'll leave that to our hunting friends and use ours to punch paper.
Respectfully,
