Congratulation. A very nice collection indeed.
Consider yourself a member! I have the same exact rifle as you, not blooded either and shoots like yours. These are fine, affordable rifles. Welcome to the .404 club!So,
I've gone through the following stages:
1) 2009 I should buy a DGS rifle in case I get the chance to go to Africa
2) Read about the different calibers
3) 2011, bottle of wine at the DSC Banquet - a little bidding. We're going to Africa for Cape Buffalo, Plains Game and Tigerfish
4) Oh, crap, I need to go buy a 375 and practice.
5) Bought a CZ 550 slapped on my old Leupold 1-4x24 shotgun scope and got a nice buff
6) 2013 - What if I get a chance to hunt an elephant. Maybe something bigger than the 375
7) Repeat step 2, skip the others
8) 404 Jeff sounds like the ticket
9) Shop the websites, I'll never afford one - nothing under $5 - 6K
10) October 2013 Cabelas KC has a CZ 550 special order, multiple serial numbers for 33% off normal list
11) Picked out the stock I liked and had it shipped
12) Traded an old Remington 870 with smooth and rifled barrels along with an old Leupold VXIII for a new Zeiss Duralyt 1.2-5
13) Finally got out to the range today - what a blast. 5 shout group in 3 holes all touching. Wow.
14) Can I be a 404 Jeff Club member - or associate even though it hasn't drawn blood yet?
