I am looking at the American CZ 550. Are these still plagued with the stocks cracking? Are the new versions all outfitted with the crossbars for support? Generally speaking are they a good rifle? | ||

Stock bolts are now standard. At one time, CZ would install them in the older stocks at no charge. Not sure if this policy is still in place. Mike ______________ DSC DRSS (again) SCI Life NRA Life Sables Life Mzuri IPHA "To be a Marine is enough." | |||

Get the Kevlar stock with aluminium 'bedding'; probably a lot stronger. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- “A man can never have too much red wine, too many books, or too much ammunition” ― Rudyard Kipling | |||

Cracking stocks are not an issue with any bigbore.That is like asking if a car windshield cracks.If it doesn`t move around in its frame it won`t crack.You don`t need any crossbolts.I still practice with my rifles and will one day reach a conclusion as to which is the best big bore bolt action rifle.The only way to do this is to practice continuosly with them for a long time.Some people may say this or that is best but they don`t know what they are talking about.The CZ in 458 Lott is not leading the race,IMO.The Ruger on the other hand is out front-loads easy,accurate factory barrel,bolt works fast,points very easy,excellent cast metal action,excellent safety,manages recoil very good,etc... I have shot out a few of them,broke my ribs,had scary concussion symptoms of all kinds(to say the least) and know them well. | |||
