I have a 470 Butch made for me that I got this winter after the usual 1 year wait.Fit was as requested. Stock beautiful! Some finish problems , bluing missing here and there, I touched up with bluing touch up pen. Some scratches on stainless steel, nothing bad, I will eventually add my own scratches.Only real problem, shot 6-7 inches low at 40 yards. I talked with Butch 3-4 times, have replaced front sight with lower ones to get back to where it should be hitting.I had a front sight with flip up night sight put on first by Butch, now rest of sights, being lower, can not have that feature.He did offer to have me send rear sight back to him to refile so I can use orig. front sight.I am working with it myself to get sights right. Shipping parts and or rifle across country does not work well for me unless I really have to for major problems.
It does shoot ok, 2-2 1/2 groups, ejection works every time.I use ammo to spec. per Superior Ammo.
Butch was helpful each time I talked to him, I was not expecting the sighting issues though.
