Thanks I fid them OK, we go by the year of manufacture and depending on when it was made depends on what I am prepared to pay for it. But also, alot of rifles need work. EG - I like Win Mod 70's but and the Super Express 458's were great - until you fed other ammo in it that didn't use the 510gn Winchester Bullet. All it needed was a bit of work and it was done - you hear people complain about guns but not why it has a problem. That's not to say he didn't get a lemon of a gun but..... |

Shanster Did you buy it new or Second hand. Re the stocks, it is not a lack of customer service if they don't provide an upgrade to a Laminate Stock. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I bought it new . I asked to buy a laminate outrightif they wouldnt upgrade. It is now getting a Kevlar/fiberglass stock. I talked to the gunsmith today It should hopefully be done by the end of the year. |

That rifle sold for $830.00 not that great of a price. Cabela's has this one Safari Classic .375 H&H It dosen't have the lamanated stock but at $799.00..... http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/conten...4248_cz_egf.jsp Bill |

$800 is about the going price for a new "off-the-rack" CZ 550 American Safari Magnum in 375 H&H, 416 Rigby or 458 Lott. My guess it's not a "Safari Classic" even though it may say so on the barrel. Those come only in classic calibers (300 H&H, 404 Jeffery, etc.) and typically cost $2100 plus. |

the czech magnum (.416 Rigby) is more rugged than the Ruger Magnum, but you would have to restock it, because the original stock is only a joke (but that would also be a good hint to do with the rugers) and put a 3-pos-safety (made by gentry) on it to own a really practically safari-rifle.... |
