Re: Zg 47?

I have followed this discussion with some interest, I am familiar with the ZG-47's and have owned them along with most everything Brno/CZ has produced....I have read various accounts of actions sold in small numbers to foreign makers ie. Parker-Hale,300 or less, Heym ...about the same number, and a small number to WF Frankonia.... I have seen the PH Hussars before (.243 strange as it seems) and a Heym manufactured rifle,caliber eludes me now,as it was some time ago..
I just bought,and will take delivery of next week,a PH Hussar in Cal. .308 Norma Mag, My reasoning is that this would be the only rendering of this action in a magnum chambering,I assume magazine and rails were modified as well as the bolt face of course. Anyone with experience on these guns?? Some mention in print has been made that of the 300 +or- PH's fewer than 50 were chambered in .308 Norma. Anyone with more informed insight into PH production records... ? Have not really got a project in mind for this,but lots of possibilities come to mind.
Thanks for any input...
