Hey gents, I recently picked up my first 375 H&H. It’s a CZ 550. I’d been looking for one of these or a Model 70 for a while, just never found anything local to me as I wanted to fondle it before buying. My neighbor called me one day and said this was at one of the local gun shops. So I went down and started the paperwork. I don’t know much about these guns but figured it was a good place to start. I picked it up for $1500. Apparently it’s got some good juju as it’s been to Africa a couple of times and taken buffalo. How do you guys think I did on the gun? It’s kind of lite a fire in me on big bore stuff, I’ve been looking into a 416 Rigby or 404J now! My plan is to get to Africa in the next few years!

Hello,

Am I reading your post correctly to say that the Tsavo rifle will be coming out with a composite stock later this year? I ask because I had been looking very hard for a Tsavo, but if there is going to be a composite stock model I will wait for that.

Thank you for your time,

Andrew

Saw your post. Nice. Denver too. Genesee area (just off 70) if ever up this way. Alternatively, do you have a membership at GGC? Whatever, you'll have a wonderful time in Africa. Enjoy.
