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.

What is the minimum you would take.

I have a Chapuis 450-400 double that looks brand new and shoots well, never been hunted from what I can tell. I am willing to part with it as I have a 375 H&H Sodia on it's way from Dorleac & Dorleac. I am looking for $9,250 for it and if you are interested, I am happy to send you some pictures. Regards,
Steve
