I’ve got a BRNO .375 with the factory 25” barrel, plan is to have it cerakoted, synthetic stock & 3 position safety as an all weather rifle. Question being, for you guys that have had several different barrel lengths of .375’s; what’s your preference on barrel length?

So I’ve got a BRNO 602 in .375 that I’m going going to replace the stock with Sythetic one. McMillan says the CZ550 stock will work but it is available in flat top only so I would have to find someone to inlet it. Are their any other quality options out there?
