Re: CZ 550 Safari 505 Gibbs

Australia, I did not notice that. Its a small world now with the www.

My 3c adjusted for inflation on some options for the custom built CZ550 magnums.

I got the base gun, 24"bbl and neglected to specifically ask for the reducers. FYI, if you
want the Mercury you better ask. I think, its all backed into the price. My experience
shooting was the first shot with 600gr factory loads was an eye opener! Mush more recoil than my
458Lott in same CZ550. I added weight, then found the 535 gr loads were not as bad. Next I added
a scope. Less recoil with a scope. I tried a PAST recoil vest and recoil became a non issue with
either factory load. I removed the scope and the weights. What I am saying, is the reducers
or weight may be something each shooter adjusts over time as he get used to the recoil and
adjusts other variables. This rifle is a definite step up in recoil from a 458 to deal with.

The option I wish was available when I got mine was the pop up peep sight. I currently use NEGC
(?) after market peep.
