Aside from CZ and Blaser, does anyone make a left handed bolt action 458 win mag or lott? Did they in the past?
 
There is a guy in Greenville, TN that sells lefty zastavas on gunbroker. You might call and inquire about having him import a 458.
I’m pretty sure Winchester has made some in the last 20 years, but good luck finding one.
 
...Check GUNS INTERNATIONAL.

FWIW, I located a left handed Winchester M-70 in .338WM on the above mentioned site. I then had the barrel pulled and installed a Krieger .458WM barrel. My very good P/H friend in Zim has been using this rifle as his "Stopper" since 2002.

Montana Rifle Company sold left handed actions, barreled actions, and complete rifles once upon a time.
I have a MRC 458 Lott in a McMilan stock.

Did you have to rework the magazine or was it a simple barrel swap?
 
Won't be CRF but you can custom order a Mk VII from ER Shaw for about $1200. Basically a savage action
 
There is one here.

...No changes other than the barrel swap. The magazine and follower were examined for any rough edges and pollished. The feed ramp was also pollished. Rifle re-assembled and test fired for function.

The work was accomplished by Gene Simillion in Gunnison, CO.

Twenty years and no complaints from my P/H friend.
 
I bought one of those lefty Zastavas in 458. Biggest gripe is light weight(she’s a kicker). Wood is basic. All around it’s basic. But the price is right. It will keel.

Here's the target for the NorthForks - 25yds off a bag, iron sights. Hunting leopards over dogs the range won't be more than that.

Flew in an airshow in Smyrna years ago, beautiful country.

Best regards,
