Just picked up my first 458 Lott this past weekend and just got around to posting pictures....
All the work was done by American Hunting Rifles, Inc. - Gunsmith Ed Plummer in Hamilton, Montana back in 2004
I am really impressed with the rifle so far (even though I have not made it to the range yet). The gun started out with with a 3 digit CZ 550 mag auction then:
New piece of English Walnut with 22 LPI checking
the action was blue printed, trued and lapped
installed a recoil lug on the barrel
replaced the trigger with a single set at 3.5 lbs
gun-Kote finish
removalable X brake installed
23" barrel moly-chrome barrel
barrel band installed
Rear sight is a one fixed, one folding blade with a shallow V-notch
front sight is a banded ramp with fiber optic bead and hood
3 position winchester style safety added
glass bedded
2 cross bolts installed
bolt straightened
mercury recoil reducers installed in the stock
metal grip cap
1" decelerator pad installed
Sorry but I am not a Photographer.....

All in all for do some trading of a Pre 64 model 70 and some cash I have less than $200 in the gun... Needless to say I did really well....
Now to go shot it... I already have a 458WM... It will be interesting to see how this one compares...
