Shipster Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 George - thanks again for the pic.s So that rifle is built on a CZ-550 action? It seems like a great rifle; does your smith have a website and would he consider building another such rifle? Thanks! D.C. Johnson Dude, what the heck are you going to do with it??? What ever he wants! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeorgeInNePa Posted March 12, 2005 Author Share Posted March 12, 2005 George - thanks again for the pic.s So that rifle is built on a CZ-550 action? It seems like a great rifle; does your smith have a website and would he consider building another such rifle? Thanks! D.C. Johnson Yes that was a CZ550 action that my local FFL found for me. The trick action to use would be a Granite Mountain Arms action, but they are $3000.00+. The CZ works, but you have to remove quite a bit of metal from the bolt to get the shell to fit and it needs ramp and rail work to get it to feed. Then again, the CZ cost me $500 with tax. I don't think I would try for 2400fps+ with the CZ, I'd invest in the GMA just for the bolt and lug size alone. I would think he would build another, a few people have asked him about it. They usually don't go any farther than asking price. I can IM you his email, if you want it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chriss Grube Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 Well broke down at the match today and shot the beast. It wasn't as bad as you would expect. It is a definite recoil monster but damn it was fun. I could lie and tell you the brake makes it feel like a .243 but I doubt anyone is dumb enough to believe that one.

Carlos Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 "Dude, what the heck are you going to do with it???" -shoot bunny rabbits, puppy dogs, anything that pisses me off . . . Seriously, the cost is just a little too rich for my budget right now as I would want to build it as you suggest (on the Granite Mountain action). Thank you for the additional information as well as the entertaining thread. Regards, D.C. Johnson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
