Today is a great! I have finally entered the hallowed halls of big bore ownership. I Picked up my CZ 550 Safari in .375 today. The rifle is beautiful. There is only one slight ding on the right side next to the rear sight. (I have no idea how it got there) other than that, the wood is very nice. It is lightly colored for Turkish walnut, with a tight straight grain that runs tip to butt and just enough fiddle-back in the wood to give it some style.
Next week she goes to the gunsmith for glassing and maybe a second crossbolt, a better set of sling swivels, and a better recoil pad (The one that is on her now is very cheep.), scope mounted, I think that the action could use some polishing and maybe some trigger work… Isn’t love grand? Ill post photos as soon as I get a chance.
