Sounds like a pretty good plan.
I definitely want the M70 safety and a custom stock.
I've seen the Brockman site but now I may revisit with the CZ in mind.
Walter gave me some good options as well.
Thanks again.

I am currently haviong a .404 Jeffery built on a 1909 dwm and making sure my smith recarbourizes and heat treats it. It is the more expensive way to get a .404 as you feel compelled to give it the full treatment...which means$$. I reckon it is the classic way to go at any rate.

Andr�,

Do you know the price of the DWM action in the Era catalogue? I've been looking at that for a while now but the only way to get prices is through a dealer, and I don't want to go there just yet.
Just wondering if you knew.

Jim Brockman 208-934-5050 can sure tune one up for you...He works on a lot of CZs...Have him stock it, M-70 saftey, Talley conversion peep sight and scope QD mounts..Makes a nice gun..

Was trying to do this for around $2000 but I don't think thats possible. If I wait for the CZs at Ray suggests I can use the balance from the purchase price to really tune it up.

Mr Atkinson.

I think the waiting for CZ to put one out is the most prudent option.
Especially to my wallet.

I always loved the idea of putting a custom rifle together from scratch but my smithing abilities are next to none.
I think I will wait.
Thanks for the feedback
