....p.s. I am also curious as to why I can fit more rounds into my ZKK602 than can be fitted into the CZ550s. My .375H&H holds six (6) rounds in the magazine!




The 375H&Hmag and 458WM CZ550s will hold 6 rounds in the magazine, but both are specified at 5 shot capacity.




On a 375/458 CZ and Brno, when the action and the bottom metal are fitted together with the magazine box tight between them, you can usually barely squeeze a sixth round in, but not close the bolt over it. Some CZ stocks are generously dimensioned internally, and there is an additional 1-2 mm of play for the magazine box. That's why in some 602 and 550 you can fit six rounds.




I hadn't really though about it but that makes sense. I'm sure I can close the bolt over the 6th round, but there's no room left to try and squeeze a 7th under the extractor for 6 in mag + 1 in chamber.
