JarrodCZ Safari Classics
Not sure how easy or hard these are to get but
www.whittakerguns.com has these in stock in 404jeffrey, 450rigby and the 505. For those of you who don't like recoil he had a 505 with a muzzle break on it and one without. His website says a little over 2k for all the safari classics but most of them had a tag of around $1800 I think.
And they have a few classy guns there too, well, maybe semi-extended-finger stuff, but nothing completely gay.

There is a 450 Rigby "unfired in box," a used gun for $1699. It has been there for quite a while. It does have "fancy" wood.

Now that sounds a bit gay!

It's a joke.
I do like the CZ's when they are sorted out.
I have had the CZ's shoot as small as 1/3 MOA three-shot groups right out of the box. I have never had a bad one yet, out of about a dozen so far. They just need a little work, and can be as good as any rifle with the proper sorting out.
I do own more Rugers than any other make of firearm, and one of those is a sub-0.2-MOA .416 Rigby (with GSC bullets). My CZ .416 Rigby is 3/4 MOA. That confirms my thorough lack of class.
Maybe those GSC bullets have a way of smoothing out even Ruger and CZ barrels.

My CZ 458 Lott Safari Classics stock is Laminated. And very well balanced. It will put 2
shots on top of each other at 100 yds.
