Have you had a chance to handle or fire the new (new to me anyway) CZ-USA BRNO Stopper Over/Under rifle chambered .458 Winchester?

What are your comments/observations on the Stopper?

Thanks.

Mjines has one .. in 458..
Rob has one, rechambered to 458 lott ..

8.25#, handy, kinda a little ugly ... and fast!

Mjines had one, he sold it to Bill73 who seems to love it! As a matter of fact I think he is considering taking a jumbo with it next year just to piss off the Brit Gun lovers!

It looks handy and fast! Reminds me of my Remington 3200 Competition Skeet Gun.

I yike the looks of it.

It is very accurate, Handy, fast and just the perfect weight to carry all day. IT EXTRACTS FLAWLESSLY TOO! I rechambered mine to .458 lott and had no change in POI. I've turned down $8K for it Many times. Killed a boar with it a few years ago with an offhand shot at 125 yrds. second shot hit 1 inch from the first. Wood finish is crappy, but this is a working gun not a safe queen.-Rob

Why would you turn down $8,000 USD Many times?

Because I like the gun and dont need the money?-Rob

Can someone please post a picture of one? Thank you!

You can study it here:

CZ O/U

I saw Rob's a few years ago and correct me if I'm wrong Rob, but I think the original BRNO like yours had full length side ribs?

he won't even let me use it out of his sight! (or sights)

Sounds like this rifle has a lot going for it. Glad to hear that.

Thanks for the link. I didn't realize that CZ is still producing them. Very cool!

The old ones with the rib between the barrels look a helluva lot better than the new ones.

I looked at the pics and Mine is definately worth $8K in comparison. I have the rib between the barrels and side bolsters. This thing looks like a pimped up Valmet! The stock on the new one looks nicer though. Mine is all scratched up from HUNTING!-Rob

RGB,

Scratches/Dents: I like to think of mine as battle scars. There are stories to go with most of them.

Still, Suggested Retail of $5554 is not too shabby if you are an O/U guy.

O/U's have a lot going for them from a recoil standpoint. Both barrels recoil in the same plane.

The barrels cool much faster with no rib. Good looking express.
