FOR SALE: NIB CZ550 American Magnum 458 Lott

[Jefferry404]

I am original owner, not sure when I bought this but maybe before 2010?
Only out of the box for photos & to Tim at Matrix for beefing up
with crossbolt, brass grip pin, 0.75x4" Mercury Tube in the butt.
I had a AHR 3 pos safety sitting at Tim's and I guess this got onto it
and he spiffed it up with bolt, follower with jeweling (I prefer plain, but you know Timothy
and filled, straighten the bolt handle.
Price is $3848, buyer pays shipping, insurance, maybe around $160.
For rifles sales, I go thru Matrix.
Thanks for looking
Steve

This should not last long for anyone needing a big bore!

Very nice! I can vouch for the seller. Very easy to work with and a pleasure to do business with.

WHY hasn't anyone scarfed this up yet?

These rifles, especially one in great shape like this one, are getting scarce. I have 6 CZ-550's, so not in the market for one, but if it hangs around here for a few weeks, I may change my mind.

If I didn't already own one of these

 

[Jefferry404]

The unloaded weight is 10.2lbs. Four 500gn cartridges will add just shy of 8oz, for 10.7lbs.
Probably ok for a Lott with a mercury tube

Dude, this is absolutely cool. While I already have ammo and dies, I sadly have not finished the home remodel I need to complete to be in the market. I wish it was June. /sigh/

The house will still be there in June; the rifle won't. Re-prioritize.

True, but my wife says that if I don't get that project done than I might not be alive in June to play with the rifle

 

[skydiver386]

Any ammo, dies, scope rings, etc. to sweeten the deal?

 

[Jefferry404]

Sorry, no. If cz shipped rings in the box, they come with it. There is a single stage trigger in a pouch and all the paperwork, but not much sugar, I’m afraid.

 

[Rez Exelon]

Maybe the solution here is that SkyDiver buys the rifle, then gets dies and ammo from me, and then tells me what I missed out on

How do you think I ended up with the other 6 CZ-550's?

 

[CJNJ]

458 Lott is not the same thing as the 458 Win Mag indicated on the barrel is it?

 

[Woody]

Barrel marked "458 LOTT/" above that, original Win Mag marking left on as it can be fired in a Lott chamber

 

[CJNJ]

Got it. Thanks.

 

[Jefferry404]

the good thing is if traveling overseas can have both the lott and winmag ammo that match the rifle.

 

[Jefferry404]

for pricing, is used GI and GB (which was not much use), threw out the highest on GI ($4900!!!), all 2nd hand, most not used, some dings, no boxes or paper work. Then took the average, $2883, parts were $344. Then added $350 as original owner and NIB (maybe i should keep the box and papers, then heavily discounted Tim's labor. For those that do not know Tim, at Matrix, he is a master at working on CZs. I bet he has done at least 100's, over the last 5 years (Wayne at AHR selected Tim to take over the AHR CZ gunsmithing).
Hopefully, someone will need and appreciate this rifle. But, if do not need the power of the Lott, can always use the 458 winmag, which is a great DG cartridge in its own right.
Let me know if need more pics or info. Thanks
Steve

You'll never find another one in new condition that's been worked on by the best CZ Gunsmiths at this price ever again.
