"The .458 Winchester Magnum was put into production in 1956 and was an immediate commercial success. It was a more economical alternative to the English double rifles that were considered the standard rifle type for dangerous game hunting in Africa. The .458 Winchester Magnum promised to emulate the performance of the .450 Nitro Express in a cartridge designed for a standard-length bolt-action rifle.[1] However, it soon became apparent that the .458 Winchester Magnum was not performing as anticipated. "The .458 Lott is a .458 caliber belted hunting cartridge designed as a replacement for the less powerful .458 Winchester Magnum. It is based
on the full length .375 H&H Magnum blown out and shortened to 2.800 inches . The cartridge is designed for the purpose of hunting African dangerous game.
