The saga continues !
The CZ 537 is in very good condition, crown/barrel graded 8/10. I have a CZ 550 in .270 and they look the same, however doe the CZ 537 have slimmer barrels and does the barrel twist rate stabilise the heavier 7mm bullets ?
The Musgarve is like brand new with a new bore, I'm very interested in this as it's built on a German made Mauser (action marked "bdo" being the factory code and "43" being the year of assembly)
I know I can't legally use my .270 in Tanzania so will need another rifle thus its between these two, money wise there is very little in it.
Help me decide, I love the idea of using the classic calibre 7x57/.275 Rigby however I like the idea of the huge selection of bullet weights for the .30-06 and its is a genuine German made Mauser action.
This rifle will be used back home mostly for deer from roe to red.
I look forward to any observations and advice.
Thanks
Garry
