I am relatively new so forgive me for asking a question I am sure has been covered somewhere before.
I want to take my cz 550 s/m from .458wm to .458Lott.

1. Who can do it?
2. How much can I expect this to cost?
3. Who makes the dies for the .458Lott?

I just asked the same basic question!
Look here for the replys:

You can get dies, bullets and brass from Hornady. Shouldn't be too costly...

As for the cost of the conversion, each smith will be different.

Keep in mind you'll probably want to get the stock bedded at the same time! CZ-550's have a rep for splitting stocks...

Grafs have dies and brass and you need an extra cross bolt. It is a nice round I reckon.
