Good morning, I am looking for a CZ 550 in .458 Lott. Does anyone have one they are looking to part with?

I am open to other .458’s as well, I just have a CZ 550 .375 that I really like so that’s why I am looking for another CZ if possible but not a deal breaker. Anyone have one they are interested in parting with? Please let me know. Thank you.

Thanks everyone, I was able to acquire one this week. I appreciate the help and hope you all have a Merry Christmas!
Congradulations. Which one did you get.

@krish I got the CZ 550 Safari Magnum that @John J recommended from Rocky Mountain shooter supply. Saved me over half enough to get the scope from what that Gunbroker one ended up going for!
It arrived at my FFL yesterday but I didn’t make it there before they closed. I guess it will be my day after Christmas present.

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.

2,822fps, ES 8.2
This compares favorably to 7 Rem Mag. with less powder & recoil.

I know that this thread is more than a year old but as a new member I thought I would pass along my .280AI loading.
I am shooting F Open long range rather than hunting but here is what is working for me and I have managed a 198.14 at 800 meters.
That is for 20 shots. The 14 are X's which is a 5" circle.
