Default RE: 458 Lott

I am entertaining the idea of a custom built rifle based on the 458 Lott. Basically, I am a regular working stiff. I have the opportunity to make some additional monies for a couple of years at the expense of my sanity and regular shooting. So as a reward, I want to build a real Dangerous Game Rifle, or as close as I can for like $4500. Then I would like to use it either on safari in Africa or in Austrailia. Depends which I can get my wife roped into! Unfortunately, when I return from either hunt, it will probably be MANY years before I can return to this kind of hunt. Other than blowing my shoulder off load testing, I'm wondering if I can do something else locally with it. maybe a nice squirrel hunt! Actually, I was wondering if anyone has shot a medioum sized deer with something like this and what was the result? At the end of the day I would like something to eat most importantly!
