Full Custom AHR 550 In 458 Lott

[Daniel Cary]

One of the pictures shows the bottom metal and the two screws are not timed up in the normal fashion with the slots front to back. Is this how it came back from AHR or has someone been tightening the screws or working on the rifle?

Good eye though & learning curve.

Screws on bottom metal of a bolt action are not always the correct tension when straight up-down with the axis of the rifle.

Timing screws isn’t just about running them down and making the screws line up at various tensions.

This article explains it better than I ever could:

Having timed screws is probably a bit much, even a full custom AHR. But it would be a nice touch.

Apologies to @Shako Badhan for the hijack of your thread. You have a very fine rifle. GLWTS.

Haha it’s no worries, if anyone has any questions about the rifle feel free to ask.

I'm a little surprised it's still available. If I didn't have a nice Champlin custom 458 Lott, I would be interested. Someone needs this and let's be real, 458 Lott recoil is towards the top end of what most guys can realistically handle with a little practice. 458 Lott is one of the best big bore caliber options for hunters out there and ammo/components are everywhere.

Couldn’t agree more @Green Chile the Lott has some recoil, but it’s far from the worst and the ammunition can be obtained on safari if needed.

I got a request for a photo of the cheek piece/ rear section of the stock. In case anyone else was interested it is posted below.

Weekend bump. The rifle is still available and I am open to entertaining offers.

Another weekend bump. If anyone has any questions feel free to ask. Open to offers.
