458 Win vs 460 Weatherby

Limbsaver and KickEez both make pads big enough for the Coil-Chek if you need a new one.
Certainly some grind to fit options. The geometry of the stock is well explained Art's book and I certainly appreciate it more now having one and fully understanding the benefits.
Like I've mentioned in this thread...this stock design, if it fits you and you can handle it, dispel the rumors almost entirely of the 460 wby and keep them relegated to the issue with the brake, the Mark V, and campfire tales...
 
I don't have a 458 Win. A couple 375 Weatherbys, but I would like to add a 458. I am looking at either a 458 Lott or 460 Weatherby.




If a 458 win has 65# of felt recoil and the WBY has 95# as previously posted, how much more weight does the WBY need to be equal? Is it a linear relationship? IE 9# rifle divided by 65# times 95# equals a 13.1# rifle?
There are online recoil calculators online.

Not sure your price range. Have a 375 H&H with a muzzle brake. Nice rifle only fired a few times. Also a Mossberg 375 Ruger its been used and shows a few hunts on it.

Has anybody hunted with Phumba safari in steenbokpan south Africa?
