CZ 550 Magnum - AHR(American Hunting Rifles)
Anyone used this company before?
Im considering the #2 or #3 upgrade package for a southpaw 375H&H rifle.
Basically the #3 package is a restock for a premium of 1600 dollars ( AAA Walnut).
Just not sure whether to draw the line at the #2 package or if the restock is worth the extra bucks.
Opinions welcome.

Im a southpaw, so 375 H&H is the only available calibre out of the box.
Suits me fine though, I wanted the Holland & Holland anyway.
Wayne is great, he bends over backwards to accomodate your needs.
I started off considering a CZ with the #2 upgrade and ended up with a full fat left hand 550 DGR rifle!
Like going to the mall for milk and bread and coming home with 2 trolleys worth of goodies...
