Hi brewman, congratulations for your "new" rifle! McMillian stock: good price, but personally I would stay with the wood stock, foI prefer wood. You can bed it for a medium amount of money (I recommend standard bedding, i.e. Acraglass) and this should be enough. - I think it is a good rifle, after a bit of tuning: change to a horizontal 3 stage safety, trigger can be improved, rails and cylinder should be smoothened for reliable and safe feeding, strong magazine floorplate spring or shut it by welding) - 375 H&H is always an universal choice - I bought a .375 H&H SAKO with a 24" barrel and shorthened the barrel to 22" That was a great improvement for me in handling, the 375H&H is reloaded with medium-fast burning powders, so I do not need the 61cm long original barrel. - I consider the #4 reticle as very good for general use, improvement only with a illumin. dot - I have a modified CZ Safari in .375 Weatherby, and I prefer the Wby version (without looking on the price of components, etc.) - My last aquirement was a CZ550 Safari in .458 Win.Mag., this is also a solid rifle (after basic tuning) Next steps will be: barrel will be shortened to 22" and feeding improved (now it only feeds all RN, Woodleigh 400grs PP and Barnes 350grs TSX, but unfortunately no ones of the flat points like 350grs Speer) So I think you will be a satisfied user of the .375 H&H together with the CZ550 Safari! best regards Rolf |
