POPNew 458 Lott Rifle on the market!
Well since Ruger, Marlin and Hornady teamed up with the 17 Rimfire project Ruger is bringing out a 458 Lott model 77 in their Safari version. This will accomodate their 458 Lott hornady factory ammo. My dealer has one on order already (not for me that is) Interesting....

POPDo not kid yourself Bill. Ruger's Safari or African or whatever they call it goes for well over $1000! Sorry dude~!

GeorgeSBuy a CZ or Winchester M-70 in .458, re-chamber, a little mag and/or action work, and you still come out less expensive than the Ruger

GustavoA friend mine converted a CZ from .458 WinMag to Lott. Excellent results!!! In fact I think the CZ action is probable the most converted action, a true Mauser design at an affordable value. Can�t go wrong. On the other side, Rugers are very good rifles. IMHO
