For hunting dangerous game in Africa, from Elephant on down, and you had to choose between a .416 Rigby or a .458 Lott, which would you choose.

More information is needed to give you a good answer.
The only choices you are giving to chose is either a 416 or a 458 Lott. Why not the 404?
For Dangerous Game, Are you talking Elephant, Rhino, Cape Buffalo, Lion, Leopard, Hippo, Crock.
And you have eliminated any plains game being taken by Dangerous Game only hunting.
So what will you do about bait animals for the lion, leopard and crock, and will they be shot with the 416 or 458?
With the two choices you are letting us choose between i would have to go with: The answer would be a 416 Rigby or Remington.
The choice was a bolt action rifle in 416 Rigby or 458 Lott for all DG including elephant,rhino,hippo,cape buffalo,croc,etc and any plains game. Either can use lighter bullets too,but most people say the Rigby.
