Hi All, i just wanted to gauge others opinions about my possible scope selection for my Sauer 404 barrel in 375 H&H. Currently my Sauer 404 has a 300 Win Mag barrel which is fitted with a swaro Z5 3.5-18x44. I've got the 375 H&H barrel on the way and together these two calibers will form a...

I agree with Red leg. If you want the mrs to shop she can do some serious damage to your credit card just at the airport. I was on the receiving end after only a 4 hour layover only.:mad:

The phrase "working rifle" is used by many people. What exactly does one classify as a working rifle? Its something i cant get my head around. I tend to treat all my rifles the same, as in i use them all and don't baby them. Thats not too say that i abuse them. I still value them as they still...

Ill speak to my mate in Houston to order it in for me a post it here,

Thank you. I'm in Australia which means I'll have to deal through Winchester Australia. That'll be fun. Six month wait just to get a reply.

hello, I just picked up a cz550 in 300 win mag. The bottom metal is not metal but actually plastic. Does anyone know who makes an after bottom metal for it, as im not a fan of the plastic? Tbh i dont know why cz did this on these rifles. Thanks

I agree it does look odd. Thats what threw me. No idea why its done like that though.

Perfect. Thanks mate.

180 grain norma oryx. Awesome on plains games and have used it to rolls a few buffs too over the years.

thanks mate. ive got a cz550 458 win mag which i will use which leaves me a spare complete rifle zkk600 in 30-06 pop up peep curved trigger now . May need to sell it. Although thinking about it the magnum action seems very big for a stalking rifle.

Was the rifle built on a zkk600 or a zkk602 action? I want to build a 350 rigby too and am considering which action will be needed. I wouldve thought the zkk600 might be too short in the mag box.

Hi fellas, Just wondering where on the later model zg47 (1962) bolts is the serial number of the rifle located? I can see them on my earlier year rifles 54, 58, 59 etched on the inside of the bolt handle but my two 62 year rifles i cant seem to find them anywhere on the bolts. Any ideas? Cheers

Hi peter, if you still want the information on the 404 jeffrey from tonys book i can scan and email them to you from work tommorow. Just pm me your email address if you wish. Regards Ismail

Good find mate a very nice rifle, but please do not drill and tap it like many people would be tempted to do.
