Custom M70 .458 Lott

[WAB]

I was waiting until Mark’s rifle sold to post this. As I have mentioned in a couple of posts, surgery on both wrists has made the Lott a bit much. I have covered many miles on the trail of Buffalo with this rifle, and I’d really like to see someone have it who will continue to build history with it. Here are the particulars:

Custom stock by LeRoy Barry of Canyon Creek Custom Gunstocks. Leroy did much of the stock work for Wayne at AHR. You will clearly see it in the pics.

Metal work by Gary Junk of Arctic Gunworks:
- .458 WM rechambered to .458 Lott
- barrel cut to 22” and re-crowned
- banded front sight with flip up night sight
- banded sling swivel stud
- trigger worked and set to 3#
- satin Arctic coat finish

Talley bases and QD rings

$5,000

I can’t find any significant marks on the stock. There are some mars on the barrel finish about 8” from the muzzle, that I have tried to show in the photos.

Sorry for the choppy listing. I should have mentioned that this rifle is a shooter. If you do your part, it is sub 1” with three shots at 100 every time.

Nice rifle! You should probably list weight and length of pull as well. I like your thought process. I was waiting for that other rifle to sell before I listed a couple AHRs as well. .

Ah, good point. I will get on it tomorrow. Sure to be the choppiest listing in AH history!

I have done much worse.
