I think if the 375 RUM was chambered in the standard M70 or the CZ there would be a lot more of them about the place.

Doubly so if it had been the 375 Winchester Magnum.

Mike,
Imteresting point....and I've thought about it long and hard.

The Model 70 is a much loved gun here in the states and IMO the only reason CZ is selling anything at all is because we can't get a .416 Rigby in a Model 70. The M-70 is chambered for the .404 now in the custom shop #3,000 list IIRC and I'm not sure a single one has been produced yet and I also understand the response has been high.

IMO if the M-70 was available for under $1,100 in .404 jeff, .416 Rigby, a .500 Jeff as well as a .375 H&H it's the only gun you'd see flying the Atlantic for DG from here......other than a few doubles...but that's just one man's opinion.
