Isn't it sitting by the Ruger #1 in 458 Lott or am I getting it confused with the Sugar Land store?

Well yesterday it was on the bottom. On the other side were two No 1. One I believe was a Lott. The other was that Stainless/laminated version with a Varmint Model tag saying 375H&H. They also had a real nice looking RSM with real nice wood. But I can't remember the chambering.

That's chambered for a large and expensive to shoot cartridge.

These are hard to move.

That is a great price if it's NIB. This coming from a dealer.

You can borrow money, but you can't borrow time. Don't wait, go now.

If it was one of the new lefties everyone has been talking about I would be posting pictures of it right now sitting in my house.

Oh well...hurry up and wait.

Local Gander Mtn had couple as well, but I didn't look at the prices. They also had Merkel 140 in .470NE. Federal ammo was $299/box for that one.

They got the last box of .375H&H Hornadys from "hundred gallon" tank for me.
PS. Over past few years I have seen several of those CZ .458W, .458L, .416 Berthas in used gun racks, most didn't have a mark on them. Just a couple of shots and "shotgun wedding" is annulled!

I ran out to the Gander Mountain on 290 tonight to go drool over the 458 Lott. The CZ 416 was marked $799.99...just thought you guys would like to know.

We "bubbas" mainly use them on charging steel plates!

The Merkel in 500 Nitro was a mere $10,400 as well.

an almost perfect rifle...as is...just needs bedded...and the trigger worked on a bit.
The 416 is a near-perfect lead bullet rifle, 350grs at 2200 is a sweet acclimation load, and a 420gr at the same speed a couple months later.
